Blogger supporters angry at blasphemy arrest in Greece

Supporters of an arrested blogger hold a small protest in front of parliament on September 28. The 27-year-old man was arrested and charged with blasphemy, after mocking a late Orthodox Christian monk, Elder Paisios, in a blog and on Facebook, drawing an angry response from his religious supporters. The blog was jokingly named "Elder Pastitsios" (after the baked meat and macaroni recipe popular in Greece). The man's arrest restarted a debate over Greek blasphemy laws and the separation of church and state. Read the Athens News story at about it on www.athensnews....

@GerontasPoustisios Why is it against the law to make the Nazis look like fools? That is a severe curtailment of basic free speech rights.
