I would rather not use any language that is considered "inappropriate" to use around any ages. I am often around all ages of people, as well as genders. So I would rather not get into the habit of using any language that may be considered "inappropriate" because I'd rather not treat anyone with disrespect.

I feel it's pretty easy to communicate to everyone that I communicate with...without using any of the words that may be deemed "inappropriate." I just do not see the benefit in using a lot of the terms either.

They may be just words, as someone has mentioned. But words do carry a lot of meaning to many people, genders, cultures, etc. The whole sin argument...it's a lot easier just not to use them so you don't have to worry about "is it a sin or not?" :). But really, if we have to question things like this, is it something that we really should get wrapped up into? If it's that big of a problem, either don't do it (swear/cuss/whatever else you want to call it) and then you don't have to worry about the "sin" part of it OR do it (swear/cuss/whatever else you want to call it) and then you will continue to question the whole legitimacy of it being a "sin" or "not being a sin."

I have gone 8+ years without saying a "curse word." I don't think it's that hard. I've been able to clearly communicate with whoever I need to...no need to pick up another habit -- especially one that has little to no benefits.

True, cool story...

I'm in my church's basement after Mass and I was talking to our priest while having some coffee and donuts. He gets up to get some more coffee and a lady sends over her child to talk to him. You can tell the kid was uncomfortable and he says something along the lines of "mom told me to confess/tell you that I said 'shit' " . To which Father replied "well saying "shit" isn't a sin, you shouldn't say it but it isn't a sin", the mom looked kind of disappointed and I lol'd.

Yeah, to be honest if God cares so much about what I say and do he should have, at my birth, been like "okay, here are the rules". And no, a book thousands of years old that's been written and rewritten a ton by men does not count.

I don't think you are trying to "argue" at all!

I would be concerned if you weren't having a hard time understanding why people subscribe. It's not something that should simply be flippantly accepted.

Not only could I consider it a gift I do. Suffrage and disabilities is part of that gift of life.

Through his own free will man has created that government that you say is limiting your actions. Although your not wrong regarding your view of free will, I was more referring to the ability to choose to believe in God and Christ or not. You have the free will to do so.

We are protected by not having those sins and wrongdoings held against us at judgment day...so long as you believe that Christ has paid that price for you.

LOL religion is a crock of shit. Everything about religion is a crock of shit.
Which is a funny statement, given that what you would call "religion" is just a worldview that permits, or even asserts, that the non-physical exists.

Other than that, there's little difference.
