Thank heaven! Jerry Springer: the Opera ruled not blasphemous:
Christian Voice director Stephen Green had hoped to overturn a previous ruling by a judge which forbade him from prosecuting [BBC Director General] Mark Thompson. […] Mr. Green had said the show "clearly crossed the blasphemy threshold".No climbdown seen from Mr. Greene, who unloads at length:
The 400-500 of us at White City alone prayed for God to have mercy and stop the [BBC TV] transmission. By letting it go ahead, it was clear God's heart was for judgment instead. [...] God was telling us to start polishing and aiming up a few round spiritual stones! [...] To allow insults against our Redeemer is cowardice. Rev 3:16 and 21:8 make clear that the apathetic and the fearful have no part in the Lord's purpose. [...] And by the way, to all of those liberal wiseacres who have said there is a deeply 'moral message' in 'Springer', get real. [...] Lord Scarman, speaking in the House of Lords judgment in the 'Gay News case', endorsed the definition of blasphemy found in Stephen's Digest of the Criminal Law, which defines blasphemy as "any contemptuous, reviling, scurrilous or ludicrous matter relating to God, Jesus Christ or the Bible, or the formularies of the Church of England as by law established."Sigh. I'm more and more convinced that religions (all of 'em!) are psychotic disorders.
