Apostasy.. The 21st Century Thought Crime - Atheism UK Podcast #15
The act of being an Apostate is seen differently throughout religion. It simply means a formal disaffiliation from, abandonment of, or renunciation of a religion. The punishment for this formal self removal from a religion is also varied depending on the religion, the social and cultural or the sect of religion but includes shunning, excommunication, verbal abuse, physical violence, or even death.
It’s hard to believe that in the 21st Century we have such a concept as Apostasy. It’s essentially a thought crime. If you renounce your religion in thought or through deed, those who follow the religion are expected to offer some punishment.
Religious laws upheld and enforced by the state are ridiculous in the 21st Century. This also allies to blasphemy as well as apostasy.
