'Blasphemy is a victimless crime' is utter arrogance

Ok, and how can someone feel victimised by blasphemy when blasphemy is "impious utterance or action concerning god or sacred things."? If we accept that God does not exist (which being an atheist forum, is the gist behind the joke in the first place), then nobody can feel victimised by blasphemy, since nobody other than "God" and related "sacred things" is affected. People are not god, and people are not sacred things.

Since you danced around the question, let me ask you something specific: Give me an example of a blasphemous statement can victimise someone.
