printed or not, or pictures or by some other visible means, publicly

For the purposes of this section, a person publishes or utters blasphemous matter if he or she publishes or utters matter that is grossly abusive or insulting in relation to matters held sacred by any religion, thereby causing outrage among a substantial number of the adherents of that religion.

sometime ago, several countries (notably muslim) tried to pass UN resolution on blasphemy

Pakistan's Submission to UN

State parties shall prohibit by law the uttering of matters that are grossly abusive or insulting to matters held sacred by any religion, thereby causing outrage among among a substantial number of the adherents of that religion (p11.1)

any further comment is superfluous

IRISHMEN AND IRISHWOMEN: In the name of God and of the dead generations from which she receives her old tradition of nationhood, Ireland, through us, summons her children to her flag and strikes for her freedom.

Having organised and trained her manhood through her secret revolutionary organisation, the Irish Republican Brotherhood, and through her open military organisations, the Irish Volunteers and the Irish Citizen Army, having patiently perfected her discipline, having resolutely waited for the right moment to reveal itself, she now seizes that moment, and, supported by her exiled children in America and by gallant allies in Europe, but relying in the first on her own strength, she strikes in full confidence of victory.

We declare the right of the people of Ireland to the ownership of Ireland, and to the unfettered control of Irish destinies, to be sovereign and indefeasible. The long usurpation of that right by a foreign people and government has not extinguished the right, nor can it ever be extinguished except by the destruction of the Irish people. In every generation the Irish people have asserted their right to national freedom and sovereignty: six times during the past three hundred years[2] they have asserted it in arms. Standing on that fundamental right and again asserting it in arms in the face of the world, we hereby proclaim the Irish Republic as a Sovereign Independent State, and we pledge our lives and the lives of our comrades-in-arms to the cause of its freedom, of its welfare, and its exaltation among the nations.

The Irish Republic is entitled to, and hereby claims, the allegiance of every Irishman and Irishwoman. The Republic guarantees religious and civil liberty, equal rights and equal opportunities to all its citizens, and declares its resolve to pursue the happiness and prosperity of the whole nation and of all its parts, cherishing all the children of the nation equally, and oblivious of the differences carefully fostered by an alien government, which have divided a minority from the majority in the past.

Until our arms have brought the opportune moment for the establishment of a permanent National Government, representative of the whole people of Ireland and elected by the suffrages of all her men and women, the Provisional Government, hereby constituted, will administer the civil and military affairs of the Republic in trust for the people.

We place the cause of the Irish Republic under the protection of the Most High God, Whose blessing we invoke upon our arms, and we pray that no one who serves that cause will dishonour it by cowardice, inhumanity, or rapine. In this supreme hour the Irish nation must, by its valour and discipline and by the readiness of its children to sacrifice themselves for the common good, prove itself worthy of the august destiny to which it is called.

Feár agus Mná na hEireann: In ainm Dé agus na glúnta atá básaithe óna bhfaigheann sí traidisiún aois nationhood, Ireland, trí linn, toghairm a leanaí a bratach agus stailceanna as a saoirse.

Ag eagrú agus a oiliúint manhood di trí eagraíocht rúnda réabhlóideach, an Gaeilge Bráithreachas Poblachtach, agus trí eagraíochtaí a míleata oscailte, Óglaigh na Gaeilge agus na Gaeilge Arm Saoránach, tar éis perfected patiently a smacht, a bhfuil resolutely waited ar an am ceart a thaispeáint féin, seizes sí anois go nóiméad, agus, le tacaíocht ó leanaí a exiled i Meiriceá agus ag allies gallant san Eoraip, ach ag brath ar an gcéad ar a neart féin, stailceanna sí i muinín iomlán an bua.

Dearbhaím muid an ceart mhuintir na hÉireann ar an úinéireacht na hÉireann, agus chun rialú unfettered na Gaeilge destinies, a bheith ceannasach agus indefeasible. Níor chuir an usurpation fada an ceart ag daoine eachtrach agus rialtas extinguished an ceart, ní féidir é a extinguished riamh ach amháin ag an scrios ar na daoine Gaeilge. Sa gach glúin na daoine a bhfuil Gaeilge Dhearbhaigh a gceart chun saoirse náisiúnta agus fhlaitheas: sé uaire le linn na trí chéad bliain anuas [2] Tá siad Dhearbhaigh sé in arm. Buan ar an gceart bunúsach agus arís asserting sé i armas in aghaidh an domhan, is leis seo fhógairt Phoblacht na Gaeilge mar Neamhspleách Stát ceannasach, agus gealladh dúinn ár saol agus an saol ár comrades-i-armas chun an chúis a an tsaoirse, ar a leas, agus lena exaltation i measc na náisiún.

Cuireann Poblacht na Gaeilge a bheith i dteideal, agus leis éilimh, an allegiance de gach Éireannach agus Irishwoman. Cuireann Poblacht na ráthaíochtaí saoirse creidimh agus shibhialta, cearta comhionanna agus deiseanna comhionanna do gach chuid saoránach, agus dearbhaíonn a réiteach a shaothrú an sonas agus rathúnas an náisiúin uile agus ar gach a cuid, cherishing na leanaí uile an náisiúin go cothrom, agus oblivious de na difríochtaí a chothú go cúramach ag rialtas eachtrannach, a bheith roinnte ina mionlach ón tromlach san am atá thart.

Go dtí go bhfuil ár n-arm a thug an nóiméad opportune do bhunú buan Náisiúnta an Rialtais, atá ionadaíoch de mhuintir uile na hÉireann agus tofa ag an suffrages gach cuid fir agus mná a bheidh, an Rialtas Sealadach, a bhunaítear leis seo, a riaradh na gnóthaí sibhialta agus míleata de Phoblacht i iontaobhais do na daoine.

Ar siúl againn an cúis Phoblacht na Gaeilge faoi chosaint an chuid is mó Ard-Dia, a blessing agairt againn ar ár n-arm, agus táimid pray nach mbeidh aon duine ag freastal a chur faoi deara go mbeidh sé dishonour ag cowardice, inhumanity, nó rapine. Sa uair uachtaracha ní mór an náisiúin Gaeilge, a valour agus smacht agus ag an ullmhacht a leanaí a sacrifice féin chun an leas coiteann, chruthú féin fiú an cinniúint Lúnasa go bhfuil sé ar a dtugtar.
