Polish Court Fines Singer For Statement Questioning Bible

A court in Warsaw, Poland yesterday imposed a fine equivalent to $1450 (US) on popular singer Doda (Dorota Rabczewska) for offending religious feelings.  AP reports that the case grew out of a 2009 interview in which Doda said that she doubts the Bible "because it's hard to believe in something that was written by someone drunk on wine and smoking some herbs."
