Spanky, no one disagrees that many (most?) Christians would find that offensive. Whether you find that blasphemous depends on what you mean by that word. If you use Merriam-Webster's definition ("impiously irreverent: profane"), it is blasphemous. I only note that the blasphemy is no different from the reaction that you would get from any Buddhist/Zoroastrian/member of a Mithraic cult if you did the same to an image of Buddha/Zoroaster/Mithra. In other words, I don't see anything distinctively Christian about the offended reaction you describe.

Do you now understand that no one has been disagreeing with you about this, or are you still obtuse?
