String of incidents where Islamic text was burned in Denmark and Sweden prompted intensively debated bill

The bill has since been reworked to specify that it only applies to holy books from religions recognised in Denmark.

I guess it’s now more clearly defined to reference to religion recognized by Danish administrations.

Didn’t they get legal recognition in like Germany or something? Maybe Denmark is next

Hard to say. I doubt it though.

As insincere/foolish as our politicians can be, they do seem to take that part somewhat serious.

Like, Scientology isn’t recognized as a religion and such. The list of religions outside of the abrahamic ones is surprisingly short.

It was in Austria, I think. You’re thinking of the colander-head ID photo?
