There was someone else on these forums who earlier said something among the lines of "see, Poland has these things called laws, and those who do not follow these laws are in no position to later complain", which I find quite agreeable and applicable to this current situation.

Perhaps you could point to the factual errors in the statement "The bible was written by someone who drank hot wine and herbs”?

I would have thought secularity was a precondition to get in to the EU?

Irrelevant; freedom of speech is not.

what was illegal about it. link or stfu.

The fact that it broke the law? I'm not entirely sure what kind of link you want, but here's one in English relating a similar incident:

wwrn.org/article.php?idd=6193&sec=39&con=46

In predominantly Catholic Poland, offending religious feelings is punishable by up to two years in prison.

Perhaps you could point to the factual errors in the statement "The bible was written by someone who drank hot wine and herbs"?

I'm not sure why I should, but: neither I nor anyone else can prove that the Bible was written by any one person, since that would require that it was written by God, which would by extension make it not at all hard to believe. Thus factual error must exist in the statement somewhere; take your pick of just where.

Why does your sarcasm not surprise me, despite your support of the decision to fine a woman for calling someone the derogatory word for a homosexual, or indignation at lack of legal action against Rydzyk? Probably because most people are only fans of free speech so long as it aligns with their own views, I suppose.

So, do you think she has gone too far this time... or are the Poles over-reacting?

She is just spewing here religious tolerance.

While public TV also compete in the market and their management have the right to decide about personal policy. Politicians which always control this company claim that public TV realizing some kind of cultural mission. That is how they force taxpayers to pay for it. Of course this is a joke, how could they employ such people like Doda at the first place?

Never thought Poland was a religious-taliban state...what's next?

Said a self-proclaimed Germanic pagan! :)

She likes pushing the boundaries, but that is about all she really does, well besides showing off her body and speaking rubbish most of the time. I don't want to generalize but if she is so intelligent (high IQ ) why is she making a fool of herself? I guess she has nothing else to offer.

It appears that she is one of the stupidest pop-stars around. Notice that such people very rarely talk about such issues, because they want to gather the biggest publicity possible.

The article about religious tolerance is stupid but this is funny how brainless doll who try to stir controversy by all means is defended by so many. While the fact that Polish public TV never invite representatives of non-parliamentary parties to political debates remains widely unnoticed and nobody loudly cry about lack of freedom of speech in publicly financed company. What is the reason of such double standards? It is because majority of people is mentally on the level of tabloids?
