Blasphemy laws
From Conservapedia - Reading time: 1 min
Due to the Christian heritage of America, many states had laws against blasphemy, some of which are still on the books today.[1][2][3]
In the United Kingdom, blasphemy laws were abolished as part of the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008.[4]
In many Islamic countries, blasphemy was and still is punishable by death.
