Over-stretching the blasphemy concept /idea?

“Don’t call me good.. No man in this world is good. Only our Father in heaven is good.” I’ve dared to paraphrase something that Jesus Christ said in His Holy word.
And contemplating about our sinful nature and God’s desire and ability to forgive us every time we sin against Him and fellow men, His real love amazes me.
And it is rather surprising how we humans in our mortal selves sin and err so easily, almost effortlessly.
 It is rather sad how, for instance, we swear every other minute by God’s name when He has clearly instructed us not to swear by His name or by heaven and earth or by anything else for that matter.
In my Gigikuyu mother tongue, we have a saying – – “itheru ni mehia” (paraphrased as jokes are akin to sin or joking is erring). So as humans, we joke a lot mentioning God almighty’s name in vain and even swear by the same Holy name without ever blinking.
We also accuse God almighty of so many crimes and sins.
For instance, earlier today in a popular radio show, a fan called and among the other things that he said was that he loves the presenter very much not just for her presentation prowess but also great physical beauty.
“I think God almighty created you very early in the morning before He got tired,”” the caller – fan said to buttress his beholding beauty earlier statement.
This statement made me think, “does our almighty God ever get tired really?”
Even in our churches, we nowadays claim that God almighty feeds on praise & worship; but really does our God almighty feed leave alone getting hungry?
Back to the caller -fan–“most of us who aren’t so good looking (i guess he meant either beautiful or handsome) were created in the evening when God (almighty) was tired and especially the dark /black one because the sunlight was almost finished for three day, ” he further claimed.
In reflection, i really wondered whether God almighty ever gets tired, the time of day notwithstanding.
The statement also implied that God almighty cannot see clearly in the dark yet He is the one who created everything including darkness and He daily keeps watch over us even in the darkest nights and places.
Does it also mean that dark coloured or black people are ugly PR nit good – looking?
As i reflected on the conversation, I thought… “isn’t out better to remain silent than just talk for talking only sake”.
But it also dawned on me why caution remains paramount as we daily interact with eutgetmass  social media. That we should be extra cautious not to believe anything we get on all manner of Media.
Media could build or destroy remains an everyday truth…… 🤔😊
My thoughts expressed at the event present risk of being judged ‘too serious in this life where chance is given only once’…. 🤔🤔🙏🏿
