FLEXIBLE ITALIAN MORALITY


I often smiled seeing in US buses and subways "No blasphemy".I even recall such an inscription at a fishermen club in the Outer Banks...

In Italy, blasphemy is almost the normality. Possibly for being too close to the Vatican....

So, the football ferderation passed a regulation and players discovered saying blasphemous things are supended for a number of matches.

We learn today that two teachers have washed with soap the mouth of a primary school boy because of blasphemy.

Regrettably nobody did anything to Berlusconi when the video showing his blasphemous attitude was shown on TV and the net. On the contrary, a Monsignor (Fisichella)  even found reasons to excuse him. It Italky, not all pigs are equal, not even in front of God
