Welcome To Sharia Law, Thanks To The ECHR..

Defaming the Prophet Muhammed “goes beyond the permissible limits of an objective debate" and "could stir up prejudice and put at risk religious peace” and thus exceeds the permissible limits of freedom of expression, ruled the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) on Thursday, upholding a lower court decision.

I wonder if this law, and punishment would apply if any other religion was involved?
