> Blasphemy, in itself, is not illegal, nor should it be.
Ah, but jsut consider the utter chaos that would ensue if it were made illegal. Since so many hereabotus claim that atheism is a religion... any denigration of atheism would thus become a crime. If it becomes illegal for soemone to have a bumpersticker reading "there is no God" because it's blasphemous to Christians, it would be equally illegal to post one saying "There is a God" because it's blasphemous to atheists.
Trial lawyers would have a field day.

Nah. The atheists would just shrug and go about their business, leaving the name-calling to others.
