Freedom of Speech is necessary in a free thinking democracy, but the speech should not be a threat to inflict harm on someone or an incitement to harm or kill someone.
Poking fun and satirising all aspects of our lives is OK if a little unkind but satire is necessary to make social comment on a host of issues.
Deliberately publishing or speaking in a deflammatory way is not allowed and it is covered in our libel and slander laws.
Religion is always fair game for satire as it is based on fantasy not fact ie
God is a theoretical human construct part of a belief system and NOT a real human being who could take offence.
