Is it blasphemous to write "God" for example, and for that note to end up being disposed in the trash?
Can blasphemy also happen when a word that has sacred meaning which was written down goes through an act of disposal?
The context for this is bc when I was eating a snack, I noticed the wrapping had written on it the address of where it was made, and in the country where I live in I often see addresses (streets, cities, etc) with religious names on such food wrappers like “Holy Faith” or “Saint Peter” etc… Out of doubt, I have been collecting so many food wrappers with addresses like that due to me not knowing yet for sure what I should do with them, and I don’t want to offend the sacredness of the meaning behind such words by the way of disposing the wrapper…I’m terrified of blasphemy against The Holy Spirit..
I now started to worry on even doing transactions with businesses that have food wrapped with addresses like that, bc it seems for some reason wrong to me to sell or buy something with such words and for that to probably end up in the trash by many..
Is there something in the Bible that can give some thought to this? What verses are out there talking about a similar topic to enlighten my conscience? Is it blasphemous to dispose of those wrappers in the trash?
I think I saw somewhere that Jews try not to write the name of God, perhaps out of a similar fear as mine? And that they bury texts with sacred words instead etc… is there a way to treat the thing (paper, wrapper, etc) where a word with a sacred meaning has been written? Does the paper require a special treatment out of the sacred meaning of the word it may have?
And is it okay to transaction with a business that sells food wrapped in paper with an address which contains word that has a sacred meaning and for it to end in the trash by many?
I’m a non-denominational Christian btw
Pls help my conscience
Thank you!
