''Our culture has accepted two huge lies: The first is that if you disagree with someone’s lifestyle, you must fear them or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don’t have to compromise convictions to be compassionate.''

OK then, on too how this works against you and the freedom of religion.
There are people on this board that are Avowed Atheists it is there RIGHT in Canada to think this way.
They would contend that this post is also an argument that the telling of the christ lie has been told so many times that it is now accepted as truth by christian's.
My next question is, would be do you consider this statement to be blasphemous or not?

No, not blasphemous.

Actually this is priceless.
Apparently The Hague does Indict popes for crimes against humanity.

Perhaps you've never heard this argument.
It is said that a person will die for a lie, and anyone contesting the witness and testimony of the apostles would say that they did.
The problem is that no one will die for a lie, WHEN THEY KNOW IT IS A LIE!!
And yet 11 of the 12 apostles DID die violent deaths in support of the story of Christ, a story they would have known to be true or false.

I hope you see my point. The head of ANY organization with criminals in it should be suspect in exactly the same way.
But nobody here even KNOWS the head of, say, Penn State, or the Boy Scouts etc

I trust you understand the scenario of the apostles and early Christians and what they knew and saw about Jesus Christ and His death and resurrection. All of the Christian faith depends on this one event.
Now expalin how your "martyrs" question has anything to do with this.

They died for a lie I don't need to explain anything else.
If you don't get it, don't worry about it.
