Blasphemy

The use of irreverent words in reference to the Supreme Being, such as to produce scandal or provoke violence; a malicious reviling of God or religion. Blasphemous libel: the publication of writings blaspheming the Supreme Being, or ridiculing the doctrines of the Christian religion; — not an honest denial of the truths of that religion, but a publication with intent to pervert, insult and mislead others by licentious and contumelious abuse of sacred subjects.
