Give details if you can, something that can be done with a minimum of effort.

Luke 12:10--"And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven."
So if you say something against Jesus, you can be forgiven, but if you do that against the holy spirit, it is an unforgiveable sin.
Many believe Jesus and the holy spirit are one and are part of a "trinity" but this Scripture proves they are not equal. The spirit is not even a person, it is a powerful force that Almighty God uses to accomplish his purposes and strengthen his servants.
How can a person become guilty of committing the unforgiveable sin. The Bible tells us---"If we practice sin willfully after having received the accurate knowledge of the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice for sins left.” So there is a deliberateness or willfulness about this kind of sin. One callously sins, fully aware of the fact that he is going directly contrary to the operation of God’s spirit and His righteous laws. A person could become so hopelessly corrupt in mind and heart as to carry sin to the point of sinning against the spirit. And one need not be a spirit-anointed Christian to do so. Remember that the religious leaders in Jesus' time were not anointed Christians and yet they committed unforgivable sin. They were witnesses to the many miracles Jesus performed, but they refused to believe that he was the Son of God and eventually helped put him to death.

Blasphemy against the Spirit
- Therefore, I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven (Matthew 12:31)
Is the sin of attributing to Satan
- But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, "This man drives out demons only by the power of Beelzebul, the prince of demons." (Matthew 12:24)
What is the work of the Spirit of God
- But if it is by the Spirit of God that I drive out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you. (Matthew 12:28)
We really do not know why Jesus said this sin is unforgivable.
With love in Christ.

aint it wonderful, that God can forgive all other sins
ummmm as far as your question...
Im not sure I I should tell you, why do you wanna know?
but Exo is right and attributing the work of God to satan is the type of disrepst to God that will get you a free ride to hell
but your hardening of your heart... might eventually cause you to be arrested so dont do it it is an ugly act of violence against God and you will spend forever regretting it
as far as Islam, the unforgiveable sin is calling God father or saying he has a son To a large extent I agree it is arrogant to call yourself God's child if it is not a reality, but if God chooses to adopt someone through th work of Jesus on the cross, if God chooses to show the world himself through his eternally generated Son... who am I to oppose HIm... no one... I fall on my face and worship
Jesus however called God father in all but one prayer and I higlly recommend coming to Jesus though the cross
the scandle of the gospel is those who glorify God leaning on the work of Jesus on the cross believeing for eternal lives are transformed and adopted as God's children and enjoy him to the end of eternity.... if you want a great scandle to be part of ... believe in Jesus

10 Commandments
1 "I am the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery. Thou shalt have no other gods before Me..."
This commandment is to believe in the existence of God and His influence on events in the world, and that the goal of the redemption from Egypt was to become His servants (Rashi). It prohibits belief in or worship of any additional deities.
2 "Do not make a sculpted image or any likeness of what is in the heavens above..."
This prohibits the construction or fashioning of "idols" in the likeness of created things (beasts, fish, birds, people) and worshipping them.
3 "Thou shalt not swear falsely by the name of the LORD..."
This commandment is to never take the name of God in a vain, pointless or insincere oath.[21]
4 "Remember [zachor] the Sabbath day and keep it holy" (the version in Deuteronomy reads shamor, "observe")
The seventh day of the week is termed Shabbat and is holy, just as God ceased creative activity during Creation. The aspect of zachor is performed by declaring the greatness of the day (kiddush), by having three festive meals, and by engaging in Torah study and pleasurable activities. The aspect of shamor is performed by abstaining from productive activity (39 melachot) on the Shabbat.
5 "Thou shalt honor your father and your mother..."
The obligation to honor one's parents is an obligation that one owes to God and fulfills this obligation through one's actions towards one's parents.
6 "Thou shalt not murder"
Killing an innocent human being is a capital sin.[22]
7 "Thou shalt not commit adultery."
Adultery is defined as sexual intercourse between a man and a married woman who is not his wife.[21]
8 "Thou shalt not steal."
This is not understood as stealing in the conventional sense, since theft of property is forbidden elsewhere and is not a capital offense. In this context it is to be taken as "do not kidnap."[21]
9 "Thou shalt not bear false witness against your neighbor"
One must not bear false witness in a court of law or other proceeding.
10 "Thou shalt not covet your neighbor's house..."
One is forbidden to desire and plan how one may obtain that which God has given to another. Maimonides makes a distinction in codifying the laws between the instruction given here in Exodus (You shall not covet) and that given in Deuteronomy (You shall not desire), according to which one does not violate the Exodus commandment unless there is a physical action associated with the desire, even if this is legally purchasing an envied object.

Dishonor your Mother and Father. Worship graven images of the Lord. Covet your neighbor's wife or his *** (it's in the Bible).
Re interpret the Bible to serve yourself (ala. King James).

The same non-violent offense that a tyrant would lob off your head for - not believing in his authority or him. (Interesting, huh?)
