   No, not blasphemy, just stupidity.  The circle squarers, angle trisectors   
   and cube duplicators are not blasphemous, just stupid.  Their   
   intelligence doesn't reach the level needed to appreciate their ignorance   
   of the pertinent proven mathematics.   
      
   To those can be added the halting problemists.
