Original Note:
Blasphemy laws in the UK weren’t abolished until 2008 in England and Wales, 2024 in Scotland and are yet to be abolished in Northern Ireland. While prosecutions were rare, Britons certainly haven’t had ‘centuries’ of freedom to criticise religion. https://humanists.uk/campaigns/successful-campaigns/abolition-of-blasphemy-laws/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blasphemy_law_in_the_United_Kingdom
