We have heard many stories from the past of blasphemy, and what happened to the blasphemer. In almost all religions or believe systems, blasphemi is regarded as the pinacle of crime a man can commit towards the god or deity of such religion. Death, in many cases, is a given for the blasphemer.
Many argue that blasphemi is intollerable, it is an act of disgracing the ultimate being whom mankind must show their utmost respect. It is often compared to disgracing your parents, but this time, imagine disgracing the creator of your parents, the "parent" of life itself. That reasoning is somehow acceptable, only and until, the main difference between god or deity and your parents is unraveled, that god is omnipotent. Are your parents omnipotent? I would be thrilled to have such parents. Yet, none of us have. Thus, it is only logical to defend your parents, who are otherwise defenceless, or unable to defend properly, or someting like that.
But god? Should he/she be the being he, or his followers claim him to be, he should not have the slightest of worry when an insignificant creature, incomparable to his might, disgraces him. Worry must he not, let alone be infuriated.
