I just found our that blasphemy is illegal here in Oklahoma.
The law states that "Blasphemy consists in wantonly uttering or publishing words, casting contumelious reproach or profane ridicule upon God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Ghost, the Holy Scriptures or the Christian or any other religion."
The penalty is one year in prison and a $500 fine.
God damn it, that just doesn't seem right.
(By the way, according to Merriam Webster, con·tu·me·li·ous is an ajective meaning "insolently abusive and humiliating." it's pronounced kän-tü-ˈmē-lē-əs. Its adverb form is con·tu·me·li·ous·ly.)
