This Saturday is international blasphemy day (30 Sept):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blasphemy_Day

educates individuals and groups about blasphemy laws and defends freedom of expression, especially the open criticism of religion which is criminalized in many countries.

"We're not seeking to offend, but if in the course of dialogue and debate, people become offended, that's not an issue for us. There is no human right not to be offended."
