Found this info in a website. Copying a bit of it to give you an idea. Go to the link for the full article.
Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit has to do with accusing Jesus Christ of being demon-possessed instead of Spirit-filled. This particular type of blasphemy cannot be duplicated today. The Pharisees were in a unique moment in history: they had the Law and the Prophets, they had the Holy Spirit stirring their hearts, they had the Son of God Himself standing right in front of them, and they saw with their own eyes the miracles He did. Never before in the history of the world (and never since) had so much divine light been granted to men; if anyone should have recognized Jesus for who He was, it was the Pharisees. Yet they chose defiance. They purposely attributed the work of the Spirit to the devil, even though they knew the truth and had the proof. Jesus declared their willful blindness to be unpardonable. Their blasphemy against the Holy Spirit was their final rejection of God’s grace. They had set their course, and God was going to let them sail into perdition unhindered.
The unpardonable sin today is the state of continued unbelief. The Spirit currently convicts the unsaved world of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8). To resist that conviction and willfully remain unrepentant is to “blaspheme” the Spirit. There is no pardon, either in this age or in the age to come, for a person who rejects the Spirit’s promptings to trust in Jesus Christ and then dies in unbelief. The love of God is evident: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16). And the choice is clear: “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on him” (John 3:36).

Does it strike you as odd that the worst sins in major religions are some sort of blasphemy or irreverence? An omnipotent god couldn't be hurt. Blasphemy doesn't hurt anyone. Well, it does undermine the authority of the people who claim to speak for a god. Maybe that's why they think it's more important to keep people feeling rotten about harmless stuff, but compel forgiveness when someone does something truly atrocious to someone else.

No, there are only 2 blasphemies mentioned in the bible. - Claiming to be God John 10:33, and claiming to be able to forgive sin Luke 5:21.. which the Pope and the Catholic church is guilty of both.

Yes, that was blaspheming against the Holy Spirit and you are now doomed to suffer eternal torment for your transgression. Sorry but that's the rule and you broke it and now you have to pay forever and ever, scheisskopf.

The BuyBull is a silly, bronze-age cult book. So, nothing wrong with being honest.
And, by the way, the holy spirit is an imaginary creature, and doesn't exist in reality.
So, why worry about ridiculous crap like that?

No, its not.
