I heard that blaspheming the Holy Spirit is an unforgivable sin. Can you please explain?
 
Catechism of the Catholic Church:
1864 “Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.” There are no limits to the mercy of God, but anyone who deliberately refuses to accept his mercy by repenting, rejects the forgiveness of his sins and the salvation offered by the Holy Spirit. Such hardness of heart can lead to final impenitence and eternal loss.
The only sin that cannot be forgiven is the sin of refusing God’s forgiveness. God does not force Himself upon us, we are free to accept or reject His love and mercy.
