Blasphemy is when other people believe your believes are wrong!

Exactly. I frecuently denounce others as blasphemers when they besmirch the name of Harry Potter or Star Wars.

God is refered to as "He" over and over again in the Bible

--And to those of us who don't think the Bible accurately describes Her, what evidence do you have that God isn't female?

Any guy would be offended to be called femmine

--1. Feminine.

2. I know men who aren't offended by this.
3. One would hope that a God would not be like a human being, taking offense at being seen as female 'cause ... 'cause that's insulting!
