Offending Religious Feelings (Philippines) (Wikipedia)

Wikipedia, read 2026-08-16

A Wikipedia article on Article 133 of the Philippine Revised Penal Code of 1930, in force since 1932, which criminalizes acts notoriously offensive to the feelings of the faithful performed in a place of worship or during a religious ceremony, punishable by arresto mayor in its maximum period to prision correccional in its minimum period. Read for the statute's text and its status as the country's standing blasphemy-adjacent law.

Assessment
Reliability Tier
3
Tier 3: a crowd-sourced reference encyclopedia entry, used here because it quotes the statute's operative language directly and its account of Article 133 of the Revised Penal Code of 1930 is corroborated by Philippine legal-commentary sources cited in the same article; treated as a pointer to the primary text rather than as the primary text itself.
