What happens if someone writes blasphemies against Allah, citing him by name, on a piece of paper? Does that still merit all the pomp and ceremony, or can it be thrown in the bin?

Stupid thought exercise

What about different media

Stone. Can a just send a Muslim I don't like huge cement blocks with the word allah edged into them and they will have to keep them as there is no save way to discard them
Digital. The servers of sh.itjust.works now contain the word allah. Does the word come into contact with the pictures of dog shit that are also saved on the server. Is it OK to delete the servers or will they need to be burned down as well

What if someone shouts "Allah!" very loudly through a speaker and the vibrating air, which is now carrying the word "Allah", touches the butts of two gay men having gay sex gayly. Has the perspn who shouted committed a sin by not acoustically isolating the sacred name from gay tushies?

Ya'll are just describing why religion always fails at it's purported task of making a better populace. When rituals and ceremony take over from the psudo-philosophy and self-reflection, you get BS pointless rules like these that then go on to harm all other aspects of the religion.
