Blasphemy Laws - In Your Country?

The recent acquittal of a Christian woman in Pakistan convicted for the crime of blasphemy must be a relief to us all. She won't be executed but did spend 8 years in solitary.

A Pakistani court has overturned the death sentence of a Christian woman convicted of blasphemy, a case that has polarised the nation.

Asia Bibi was convicted in 2010 after being accused of insulting the Prophet Muhammad in a row with her neighbours.
Did some googling and found to my surprise that blasphemy laws still exist in countries I wouldn't have expected to find them. Even in my home country of Australia although stricken from federal law, there are remnants of this obscenity enshrined in some state's legislature.:mad:
