A Greek court has sentenced the Austrian cartoonist Gerhard Haderer to six months for blasphemy

Reason,  June, 2005  by Charles Oliver

A Greek court has sentenced the Austrian cartoonist Gerhard Haderer to six months for blasphemy. Haderer's comic book The Life of Jesus, which depicts Jesus as a hippie who surfs and is friends with Jimi Hendrix, is banned in Greece but has sold some 100,000 copies in the rest of Europe. Haderer faces imprisonment if he enters the country.
