You can look at it that way. I'd say that anything defined by government to be a crime, is a crime. That can include things that are considered morally / ethically wrong, or right, by any number of people.
So yes, I'd say it is a joke that blasphemy was ever called a crime, but I wouldn't say that it wasn't ever a crime, because crimes are defined by law, and not by whether people agree with them or not.
I'd also like to point out that my "integrity" isn't affected by whether I agree or disagree with you. I'll agree with you when I agree with you, and disagree with you on the other occasions. This time, I half agree with you, but I wouldn't go as far as to say that blasphemy can never be a crime.
