No, because we all know that all disease comes from satan therefore tourettes syndrome sufferers must be evil.

You cannot blaspheme the Holy Spirit today. If you read what the Lord talked and when He talked about that you can see that He had done a miracle then somebody that saw that said that He was acting by Satan. But the Lord had acted by the Holy Spirit. So for anyone to blaspheme the Holy Spirit today has to see Jesus doing a miracle and then say that that is done by the Devil. So is impossible for you to commit that kind of sin.

Some in the Christian faith believe that disorders like Tourettes Syndrome are the result of demonic possession. Even addictions are said to have the same cause. When the exorsisms fail, it's because the one who's possessed is hanging on to the demon (or the disorder). Failure to "claim" (or believe in) the healing is what causes the failure of the casting-out-of-the-demon.

If this Holy Spirit that got blasphemed is not Forgive Affirmed Spirit, it probably deserves blaspheming. Jesus was accused of blasphemy by those who thought he was against their spirit and authority! God forgives us all. God made all the sins, and we are part of God. God is everywhere and in everything, to be distinguished in part as we find it necessary to function in life.
Healing be unto you and yours and me and mine

Perfect answer was given, but you gave a thumbs down, cuz it won't fit in the confined walls of your little mind. So I'll repeat it.
Blaspheming the holy spirit is not about saying a bad word, it is about a fixed, unrepentant course of ignoring what you know to be true about God and lying to yourself and others about God's truth.
You see the holy spirit is the one who reveals truth to your own conscience and your own heart. So when you blaspheme against him, you are basically violating your own conscience and throwing away any hope that God can speak to you. That's why it can't be forgiven, at that point you have wiped your hands of God and he can no longer reach you even by the prompting of his Holy Spirit.

blaspheming of the holy spirit is when you are baptized with the holy spirit and one day you decide that God does not exists and walk away from God. That is the unforgivable sin.
It is OK to have tourettes syndrome

Depends on which God you want to forgive you. God the Father might, but God the holy spirity would not. See Jews beleive that God was a schizophrenic.

Blaspheming the Holy Spirit is not about saying a bad word, it is about a fixed, unrepentant course of ignoring what you know to be true about God and lying to yourself and others about God's truth. Specifically it refers to ignoring and lying about the fact that Jesus was really sent by God & anointed by his Spirit as evidenced by his teaching and miracles.
