US Atheists Urges Supreme Court Not to Impose Blasphemy Law 😑

The civil rights organization American Atheists, urged the Supreme Court Justices to refrain from restricting free speech and conjuring a de facto blasphemy law into existence from the bench. The case involved is Fulton v. City of Philadelphia, wherein Catholic Social Services (CSS) claims the city of Philadelphia must provide it with a taxpayer-funded contract to place children in foster care despite its refusal to comply with the city’s nondiscrimination requirements, in part, because two Philadelphia officials made innocuous statements about the Archdiocese and the Pope. Geoffrey Blackwell, Litigation Counsel at American Atheists, stated, “If the… Court were to overturn decades of jurisprudence because of these harmless comments, it would create a doctrine akin to a blasphemy law. Free speech would be stifled, and officials would be encouraged to fawn over religion, since to do otherwise would endanger any government action.”
