It's very poor taste as a Christian to use loose language.
I was talking to someone about using the word "cr**" stating that it is the same thing as saying the "s" word. They didn't agree, so I said the word in Spanish. "You can't say that, it's the same as saying the "s" word!"

It all means the same thing!!

We had a good thread going on this topic a while back. Cut short, in its prime. So sad. Anyway, yeah, if it's all about the meaning of words, then the "acceptable" words that mean the same thing as so-called "bad" words should be just as verboten.

And of course all words which SOUND like words which stand for things that should not be said. Taken to it's logical extreme and using the "6 degree of separation" rule, this would make just about the entire English language dictionary improper to utter.

Except for the word "orange" of course.

That would make some things a lot easier. E.g., they could write a script that automatically reports every post that doesn't consist only of the word "orange".

I remember a person I worked with (Roman Catholic) saying loudly with disgust "feces!" when he was angry.

I grew up with "Oh crud!"

BTW, if swearing makes pain more tolerable, that means the streets of Los Angeles are full of people in pain!
