I take your point, but the Houghton Mifflin Thesaurus says,
Blaspheme - To use profane or obscene language.

I looked up 10 dictionary definitions.

Every one referenced God, religion or sacred things.

None mentioned obscenity.

A thesaurus often lists words with related meanings, rather than defining the meaning of words.
