    Stephen Fry under police investigation for blasphemy after branding God an 'utter maniac'
    Stephen Fry under police investigation for blasphemy after branding God 'an utter maniac'

    I thought civilised Western nations had grown out of such nonsense.

    Saw this story myself ... me-thinks it's the followers of the sky fairies that are utter maniacs! Religion has a lot to answer for in this world.

      I bet he is not brave enough to brand Allah an utter maniac.

      Interesting that Saint Fry believes in God - I assumed he would be intelligent enough to realise no-one knows if God exists or not.

        I think it's in reference to below.... completely agree with him.

          n the interview, Fry replied when asked what he would say if he was confronted by God: “How dare you create a world in which there is such misery that is not our fault? It’s not right.

          “It’s utterly, utterly evil.

          “Why should I respect a capricious, mean-minded, stupid God who creates a world which is so full of injustice and pain?”

          Warming to the theme, Byrne asked Fry how he would react if he was locked outside the pearly gates, to which Fry responded: “I would say, ‘Bone cancer in children? What’s that about?’

          “Because the God who created this universe, if it was created by God, is quite clearly a maniac, utter maniac.

          “Totally selfish. We have to spend our life on our knees thanking him? What kind of God would do that?”

          That pretty much covers the subject for me, spot on , he may be an arrogant tit but he is a correct and bloody intelligent arrogant tit!

          You know Allah & Jehovah is the same supernatural sky fairy don't you?

            Prove God exists and he's guilty of defamation.

            You know what they say about assumptions!

                  God impregnated a woman without her consent.

                  Isn’t that worse than rape?
