Summary/Abstract: In an era in which the use of the means of social communication is very common there is also the increase of the risk of its potential abuse. Everyone in the light of the can.11 of the Code of Canon Law who is governed by a Church must be aware of this. One frequently occuring offenses in the use of the media has become a blasphemy that under canon law is a delict, as in opposition to the Code from 1917, the existing legislation clearly defines in the can. 1369 of the Code of Canon Law. To the existence delict within the meaning of this norm the criminal behaviour must rely on showing own thought in public with the clear intention of insulting God, saints or objects and places of worship. The public commission of delict of the blasphemy by means of social communication may further seriously offend the religious feelings of a large group of faithful who become the recipients. It is also possible to perform with the detriment of religious sensitivities of others by inciting to evil. However blasphemy cannot be easily identified with the crime offending religious feelings. Punishing the blasphemers, by using the obligatory but not specified just penalty, is to protect the Church as a community of faith and good which is the faith of its individual members.
