What is Blaspheming:<\/h2>\n

What blaspheme<\/strong> we call the act of swearing<\/strong>. A blasphemy<\/strong>, in this sense, is a insult that is pronounced against a person or against God, the Virgin or the saints<\/strong>. The word, as such, comes from late Latin blasphem\u0101re<\/em>, and this in turn from the Greek \u03b2\u03bb\u03b1\u03c3\u03c6\u03b7\u03bc\u03b5\u1fd6\u03bd (blaspheme\u00edn).<\/p>\n

Blaspheming is used, above all, with a religious sense<\/strong> to refer to the act of offending God, the Virgin, the Holy Spirit or anything else related to God<\/strong>. As such, it is an act considered heretical, especially when it involves a statement that is contrary to the faith. Blaspheming, in addition, in Christian doctrine, goes against the second commandment, which says \"you shall not take God's name in vain.\"<\/p>\n

The greatest blasphemy, however, according to Bible<\/strong>, is the one that goes against the Holy Spirit. In this sense, Matthew warns: \u201cWhoever says a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, neither in this age nor in the age to come \u201d(12:32).<\/p>\n

Blaspheming, on the other hand, can also be used in a general sense, as equivalent to cursing or vilifying, especially when it refers to something that is considered worthy of great respect.<\/p>\n

Synonyms<\/strong> to blaspheme, on the other hand, are to curse, vituperate, deny, curse, execrate or perjure.<\/p>\n

On English<\/strong>, blaspheme, when it has a religious sense, can be translated as to blaspheme<\/em>. For instance: \"I never was blasphemed against the Holy Spirit<\/em>\u201d. On the other hand, when it is used in the sense of cursing or vituperating, it can be rendered as to course<\/em>: \"Why<\/em> don't you stop cursing my family?<\/em>\u201d. Likewise, when used to mean swearing, it can be used to swear<\/em>: \"I swear by my mother that I had nothing to do with <\/em>Item<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
