Noahidist author says blasphemy stems from "pathology" and "abnormal psychology": Book Review, The Rainbow Covenant

 TABLE OF CONTENTS




According to the book Rainbow Covenant by Michael Dallen, anyone who blasphemes and is "pathological" and has "abnormal psychology".  Would a Noahide state put blasphemes in mental institutions? 


So this is a crime of relative sophistication — only man cannblaspheme his Maker — flowing from ugly and rebellious impulses of crude resentment. It is pathological, a matter of abnormal psychology, as well, of course, as absolutely futile. It defiles the divine gift of speech by cursing its holy Giver. Worse, perhaps, it breaks down the elaborately constructed fences by which men protect their most precious treasure — a true idea of God and holiness. (Dallen, 2003, pp. 231-232)
