I understand. But does your narrative require that you ignore actual definitions?

blasphemy noun
blas·​phe·​my | ˈblas-fə-mē



plural blasphemies
Definition of blasphemy
1
a
: the act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence for God
accused of blasphemy
b

for a mere man to suggest that he was … divine could only be viewed … as blasphemy
— John Bright †1889
2

If it does, I understand.
