France outlaws sexist and anti-gay insults. "The French parliament yesterday definitively adopted legislation that could lead to year-long jail terms for anyone found guilty of insulting homosexuals or women." In theory, this law could lead to the jailing of clergymen for quoting the Old Testament in their sermons! France now forbids insulting people on the basis of race, Jewishness, sexual preference, or female gender. It is still allowable to make fun of white, heterosexual, Christian Frenchmen!!
