Banning Bible quotes as hate speech in Finland is a blatant attack on religious freedom that could wipe out Christianity there and set a scary precedent for all of Europe. Prosecuting folks for sharing timeless Christian views on marriage and sexuality weaponizes laws to crush free speech and dissent. Real democracy thrives by shielding such expressions from government overreach to keep society truly open and just.
Spreading ideas that normalizing same-sex relationships damages kids psychologically fuels incitement against LGBTQ groups and justifies hate speech charges. Prosecuting this protects minorities from harmful discrimination hidden behind religious claims. Church apologies for past harassment prove these views cause real hurt and must be censored to build genuine equality and safety for all.
