Hozier Slams Garda Blasphemy Probe Of Stephen Fry
The popular musician took to social media last night to say he was "mortified" with the news that the English actor is to be investigated for his comments about God during an interview with Gay Byrne.
During the interview with Gaybo back in 2015 on his 'The Meaning of Life' show, Stephen Fry described God as "capricious", "mean-minded" and "stupid". It was reported during the weekend that a member of the public decided to go to the Garda and make an official compliant under the controversial blasphemy law, which was introduced in 2010 as part of the Defamation Act.
"Christ on a bike. Mortified by this. Feel free to report TMTC [Take Me To Church]. Would you believe it's not about going to church," Hozier wrote online last night.
