405 AnonymousI would be heartily disappointed if the BBC used the licence fee to let Mr Green off of his debt.

407 AnonymousI believe the BBC should try to recoup the costs paid by its license holders in full from Mr. Thoday. They were not the ones who brought the action.

415 Dec MunroStephen Green. Shame on you.
416 AnonymousI met the writer in a bar when he was writing Jerry Springer the Opera. He wasn't particularly rich or affluent. I saw the show in London and thought it was hystercially funny. Whether my opinion counts isn't particularly relevant but what is relevant is that he was presenting a show that used a homogenized group of characters from a well read book. Didn't it make us think? Didn't it make us question organised religion and the the media and the way it is presented? Isn't that what free thinking is about? Surely we don't all want to be told what to think and when?
417 Jeanette MuffJustice has been done, yet still this hateful right-wing homophobic bigot protests because the result doesn't suit him. He cannot even bring himself to be gracious in defeat: persisting on perpetuating lies about the show, such as claiming the character of Jesus wore a nappy, and arguing to the wrong point about whether those who've incurred legal costs due to having to defend themselves against his litigation have more money than him, which is totally irrelevant. He's lost and now must pay his dues. Green has got off lightly only being ordered to pay this proportion of the costs. If you're talking of "goodwill", then morally he should pay for the loss of royalties and earnings of the creators and cast of the show due to the curtailing of the tours and withdrawal of the DVD from various stores as a direct result of his vicious campaigning; send a donation to Maggie's cancer charity matching funds raised by the JSTO benefit gig that they were bullied into declining; and compensate for the distress, threats, inconvenience and time wasted by all those who had to defend their artistic integrity and right to free speech against him.
418 Ray PeacockShouldn't laugh really... If it is any consolation Mr Green, that jesus bloke bloody loved a pauper I am told...he was a proper bugger for loving up the poor and that...
419 Richard HooperTurn the other cheek? Forgive? If free speech is unChristian I say 'Hallelujah' for Atheism.
420 PKClearly he had no contingency plan for the losing scenario. In this at least the lawsuit was grossly irresponsible. Protect artistic freedom and the right of us all to criticise without fear of reprisal. Sign the petition.

423 Martin MalinowskiReligious wingnuts should not be free to promulgate malicious cases willy nilly in an attempt to undermine a fundamental right - freedom of expression.

425 AnonymousI agree totally why should any licence payer have to subsidize this bigot.
426 Mitch BennStephen Green and his Christian Voice organisation bullied a cancer charity into rejecting a £10,000 donation raised by JS:TO. They held their own right to take offence to be more important than the suffering of the sick and dying. They present themselves as the defenders of Christian decency and yet they wouldn't know true Christian decency if it jumped up and bit them. Stephen Green brought this misfortune upon himself through ego and arrogance. You sowed it, Mr. Green. Now reap it.

428 vadim jeanSurely the god of these medieval bigots will be writing a cheque for him. Oh, what a surprise... he seems to have opted to answer a 'prayer' to find one of them a parking place instead....

431 Raji JamesYou silly ridiculous man. Freedom of expression and the right to free speech comes at the cost of standing by your stated convictions. You have stated and argued and been judged by your peers. Deal with it and grow up you silly little small minded man. x rj

447 Tym KingI don't want my license fee money to pay his costs.
448 Steve LI echo all the comments already made. People like this must be made to understand that we don't need advocates to voice their own misguided concerns and opinions under the pretence that they are speaking for anyone other than themselves. I don't believe in any god, but if I did it would have a sense of humour and even just a basic understanding of society and progress.
449 Anonymousmake him pay - if you play the game you cannot quit because you did not win. ridiculous waste of taxpayers money
450 DarrenBy setting an example of not paying for your legal fees (when you are the one that bought the action) - where you are obliged to by the law and custom to do so - you are corrupting the legal system. This, in turn would allow frivolous action to be taken by anyone against anyone for any reason. I call upon the BBC and all involved, to insist full payment. Walking in to a court room, with blind faith in what you are doing, and without assessing your action properly - is incompetent - and incompetence one should rightly pay for. My incompetence has lead me into a large amount of debt - but I still have to pay it.
