    quote from article:

    Describing the Church of Scientology as “a dangerous, crack-pot cult”, Mr O’Keeffe said he could be prosecuted in future if he described it as such outside of Dáil privilege.

    Mr Naughten said a former Jehovah’s Witness who denounced that religion’s deeply-held belief about blood could be prosecuted if the amendments were accepted.

    I wonder how far this will go.
