To honor Celdran, Lagman files bill repealing ‘archaic’ crime of blasphemy

Excerpt
Albay 1st District Representative Edcel Lagman filed a bill seeking to repeal the crime of offending religious feelings, of which the late artist and activist Carlos Celdran was found guilty.
Lagman, who championed for the passage of the Reproductive Health (RH) law like Celdran, filed House Bill (HB) No. 5170, which would repeal Article 133 of the Revised Penal Code on offending religious feelings.
