It's just saying you don't believe Yahweh exists, or that he's good if he did, or basically to say anything negative about him. I think it really says something about a belief that the worst possible thing it believes you can do is question it.
Of course people who are not in a vulnerable position, like childhood, depression, or near death, are the hardest to convert. The only options are to let them keep talking, or to shut them up by force. That's why it's considered the worst of the worst. This is also why pride is the worst deadly sin. Feeling good about yourself and your accomplishments makes it hard to convince you that you have a void in your life that can only be filled by letting someone else tell you how to live your life.
Who taught you that stuff, you should have studied when you were in church.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
