Pastor arrested after citing Biblical marriage definition a vile attack on freedom of religion

Spiked Online Editor Brendan ONeill says the recent arrest of a 71yearold pastor in the UK for alleged hate speech is a vile assault on freedom of religion. The pastor in Britain was handcuffed and arrested by police for alleged hate speech after talking about the Biblical definition of marriage that marriage is between a man and a woman. Its a grotesque situation, Mr ONeill told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. He was just reading from the Bible; he was citing the Bibles definition some people reported him for hate speech and then he was arrested in a pretty violent way. This is a vile assault on freedom of religion and a vile assault on freedom of speech.
