If my mom told me to tell the truth and to say, "yes", when someone asked if I went to the mall last night, ?

Is this an example of committing blaspemy? If my mom told me to tell the truth and to say, "yes", when someone asked if I went to the mall last night, and I said "no", would I be commiting blasphemy against my mother? Would it be "defiant irreverance" because I am disobeying or defying her by lying and she should be able to tell me what to do and if it is right? Even though I don't think that I was being disrespectful to her, could it be irreverance because I should respect her enough to obey her? Would it be a speaking sin because I said the opposite of what she told me to say? Or is blasphemy more like a contemptuous, insulting, or profane utterance against someone that should be held in higher respect? Is my example probably too wide of an interpretation?

Answer 1

Lying isn't the same thing as blasphemy.  It's disrespectful and it's wrong, but it isn't necessarily always irreverent or offensive.  Furthermore, your mother isn't a deity, and blasphemy is an offensive statement about a religious figure.
