Do in your language blasphemies exist as interjections?

Well, I'm well aware one can say blasphemies in any language, but what I wonder if it's common to insult the deity as an interjection or an exclamation.
It happens in my language, and there is obviously polemic between those who say it and those who oppose it (almost everybody does btw, including believers).
Those who oppose it say that it's a thing that happen only in this language, and it made me curious.

For example, if one is eating and accidentally bits his own tongue, it's perfectly normal that instead of cussing or saying something like "oh my goodness" he insults God or the Virgin.
It's something somehow rooted in our culture, and they often organise competitions for the most creative blasphemy.

What can you say about it?

Goddamnit would be our most common blasphemy, (us) although I don't think it's seen as anything special, then again from the things I gather about other countries America seems ass backwards in almost every sense

Never seen it as a blasphemy, actually.
Well it's not even about being backwards or stuff if the criteria are the blasphemous imprecations :D

I was talking more the way we do things in America being ass backwards compared to other countries, I really wouldn't know too much about what people say here that would be blasphemous as I'm not very religious(I believe in God, I just don't go to church or preach to anyone or anything like that) lol

Here in Portugal we use "Puta que pariu" which in translation means "***** that gave birth". It's a word commonly used to express frustration with something or someone.

* If you eat on the cooking pot as a boy(it will rain in your man initiation day)
* Don't stand in the door, you're blocking visitors
* A bee in the house means visitors coming
* Showing someone your back is bringing them bad luck
* Throwing a coin/note across the room to someone the room, you're bringing poverty
* A bat/owl = bad omen
* Scratchy hand = money coming your way

Thats not sound like a blasphemies to me but more like a proverb/taboo

Basically, just change the phrase to "Vai pa puta que te pariu" meaning "Go to the ***** that gave you birth" XD
There is an equivalent in the dialect of my island, that is "sa bagassa chi t'ha nasciu" which means exactly the same thing you said in your reply above. But no I was referring to another thing.
Those who want to cover a blasphemy use words that are similar to God. For example, one says "zio cane", as "zio" (uncle) is similar to Dio (God), and "cane" (dog) is one of the most used epithet for blasphemies

Yeah sorry i was kinda being off topic there, i don't think there is something like that in Portuguese. God means Deus, some other people call God as "Our Father" (Pai Nosso).
