That is currently irrelevant to this discussion as most countries EXCEPT apparently Greece have no laws against "heresy".
Where did you get that? Heresy is also a crime in Germany, for instance. There are also several other kinds of opinions that can get you in prison if you say them aloud in Germany. And people get even indicted and convicted for heresy and other forms of illegal speech every now and then. And no, it is not only Germany and Greece that do not "respect" free speech.
So the conclusion is that EU respects free speech, but Greece does not.
The fact is that the concept of free speech simply does not exist as an "inalienable right" the way it does in the US.
