Illegal to Blaspheme proposal

[Abdul Alhazred]

The UN is a conspiracy to destroy our freedom, but it's a mighty incompetent one.

They are LARPers of one world government.

 

[Abdul Alhazred]

I'll amend what I said: They are very competent at sucking up resources.

Parky 76,

may lead to martial law I hear.

That's a bit extreme, but I do not think that it's right to make it illegal to blaspheme.

The Koran denies the Godhood of Christ. As this is a central tenant of Christianity can we then look forward to a renewal of the Crusades?

 

[cwalner]

Sounds like a huge threat to freedom of speech

may lead to martial law I hear.

That's a bit extreme, but I do not think that it's right to make it illegal to blaspheme.

Parky, shame on you! You should know better then to forget your smilies.

No, it's not. I repeat, comparing a resolution in a committee in the UN General Assembly to Stalin's genocidal tendencies is hysterical.

Bully for you.

 

[GreyICE]

Bully for you.

Oh dears, sometime next month or two a committee might vote on a piece of paper that if passes might go to vote in a larger body! And if it passes there, why it'll be something that every nation will receive in the mail!

The additional junk mail might accelerate the heat death of the entire UNIVERSE!

Conspiracy theory section is over there.

Err thats the generaly accepted structure of how the modern media works.

Meanwhile, in the real world, the UN will continue to lose credibility when it wastes times on proposals that will be either ineffective or damaging to the well being of society.

Why have you even heard of this proposal? Do you dig through the UN websites daily to find out what they've been up to? I doubt it since for the most part the work done by UN agencies is extremely dull.

That's a dumb argument.

Stalin only spent a small portion of his life authorises the mass murder of his own citizens. In terms of total Stalin activity it wasn't significant.

Other than perhaps 181 no UN resolution is responsible for mass murder and you'd be pushing things a bit to claim that with respect to 181.

If you want to judge the UN (rather than say the United Nations General Assembly) you need to judge the UN as a whole and that includes the likes of ICAO, IMO, ITU, UPU and WFP.
