Religion Trumps Free Speech, According to UN. Hitchens and Dobbs fight back.

UN "anti-blasphemy" resolution disturbingly suggests that freedom of speech should be curtailed to protect religion -specifically Islam. What do you think?

Fundamentalism is becoming increasingly militant

and extreme, both in Islam and in Christianity.

We don't need any more Jesus Camps

or Westboro Baptist Churches.

I was a Christian pastor for 40 years

and I believe we must stop teaching Christianity to our children,

if we wish to avoid tyranny and global religious war.

Religion is mutilation of the mind and sometimes of genitals.

Religion is a mental disease and disease should be contained to stop the spread.

@dinabio1 If you think because a religion is disconnected-pacifist minded that it is somehow moral or more moral then another superstition based practice then you're arguing nothing really and besides, you are no doubt paranoid. Just as Islamic countries embrace democracy, white washed bigoted idealism flourishes here. You make me sic. Islam means peace anyway.. but the argument is childish to begin with but not so much as the secularists on here, infants..

6:44 What about my hurt feelings. What about the hurt feelings of the non-religious. We've spent many millennia under various religious dogma namely the three primary ones and just when we have found a voice they want to take it away from us. People like me get slandered by religious people "Your going to hell" (and laughing), calling for the death of me, my family and and the destruction of my country and various other hurtful things. This should include non-religious peoples as well. :(

2:05 Wow what a way to screw everyones jail to beyond capacity. We could do what Islamic countries do and execute everyone.

i have a religious feeling and my religious feeling says you have no right to your religious feelings! thus to not opress my religious feelings you are OBLIGUED to stop believing! fuck off and die!

true defamation is illegal, but u saying u dont agree doesnt qualify... i also find it strange on a video about personal liberties there are so many comments saying religion should cease or that its a mental disease. kinda hypocritical, "u cant take away our right to criticize u, but u shouldnt exist"

If this is the direction the UN is taking, all countries should withdraw their support NOW! ISLAM is a scourge! Stoning women, cutting their ears and nose off because their weak egos are hurt is unacceptable. Islam encourages and condones barbaric behaviour and it should be abolished. All Islamic believers should be returned to the deserts where they came from. The doctrine is unsuitable and does not mix well in a civilized and respectful society.

The UN is garbage.
