    Weird: This week marked the first "Blasphemy Day"

    What sad, God-haunted, people:

    In his youth, Ronald Lindsey planned to enter the priesthood, so fervent was his devotion to God. But these days, Lindsay is devoted to protecting a person's right to ridicule, criticize -- even lambaste God.

    You might say he is a blasphemer's savior.

    The devout Catholic turned non-believer leads a movement that is all about protecting people's rights to speak irreverently about religion.

    Criticizing God is an act punishable by death in several nations. In America, blasphemy laws remain on the books in six states, though they are largely arcane and not enforced.

    But everywhere, it seems to Lindsay, scoffing at God is not socially acceptable. (CNN)

    Yeah, we're *such* a Godly society.

    Way to be daring, Ronald, in least in an oh-so-tired-and-predictable-way.
