The freedom of religion means that no one has the right to attack, malign or grossly offend a faith tradition they personally do not have membership or ascribe allegiance.

But wait, then that would mean that YOU can't bitch about Buddhism or Hinduism or anything else anymore, right? Hmm, maybe this will work after all.
Freedom of speech, on the other hand, gives us every right to malign, offend or otherwise be critical of horse crap. Which is what all religion comes down to.
I think you need to read up on freedom of religion. Nobody has the right to not be offended.
Do you mean that you would never ever attack, malign or grossly offend any faith you are not a member of? Like Satanism, Wicca, Aesir, Islam, etc.
Watch this:
Your religion is a crazy, stupid, guilt-driven Ponzi scheme.
Looky everybody I'm still free!
And that is why we don't allow fuckwits like you in office:
(Oh wait, the Lords Spiritual. Oh, my fucking mistake.)
You are too ignorant to realise that we are all equal before the law. What applies to us applies to you. The laws that give US the freedom to denigrate YOUR beliefs CUT BOTH WAYS, and give YOU the freedom to denigrate OUR beliefs.
Without these laws, HOLY BOOKS are illegal, technically. Every time you campaign for particular laws to protect yourselves, there will eventually be a court case that brings the law back to bite you on the arse. See the controversy over the Racial and Religious Hatred Act.
It actually means NO DISCRIMINATION. You can get up and blaspheme any religion all you want. It also protects irreligious people from discrimination as well.
I sure wish you fundies would respect this freedom of religion.
Where did you get your law degree? Was it one of those ads in the Archie Comics? Spell ‘paralegal’ four times teh same way, you could be a legal beagle!
And how do you offend A Tradition?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
