I curse or exclaim things often using the word Jesus. Until now I've never given much thought to upsetting any nearby Christians if I do it in public but i do remember being scolded as a kid and told "don't use the lords name in vain"
So my question to the Christians here is, does this bother you when you overhear someone doing it?
| Yes | 13 | |
| No | 17 | |
| Only mildly | 17 | |
| Other | 4 |
No, it does not.
I'm not Christian, but it only bothers me when I take his name in vain. which I do, often. I try to stop recently because it's not good thing to do. I don't say it too much, so I'm doing a good job. It would be nice for others to not do it as well, but most people don't even believe in him, sooooo.
But that just make them look silly. Why not say Santa damn it too, then? HA, ha, ha.
I sure hope so. I'm sorry, but I get real pleasure out of making religious people uncomfortable. The more uncomfortable, the more pleasure. I don't know why, but I do. I can't think of any other thing I do that's so fucking shitty to strangers, for no good reason. Fuck that pussy bastard Jesus Christ, and God damn the horse he rode in on.
When you say 'religious people' what you probably mean is just Christians. I bet you wouldn't have the balls to insult a Muslim to his face
I wouldn't have any problem insulting any religion or religious person that invaded my space. I have been personally assaulted much more often by christians than any other religion, so they come to mind more quickly.
Why would you say such a silly thing to me? What makes you think you have any idea of the size of my balls? I'd happily insult the fanatics of IS and Boko Haram, in a heartbeat, if I could find a conduit to do so. I would love to taunt them and anger them, draw cartoons of their beloved Mohammad taking a shit on the head of their leaders, for instance. It's the very least I could do. They have replaced christians as the lowest form of humanity in existence, IMO.
You sir, might be a coward, but do not model me after you.
I salute your refusal to succumb to religious fervor. But are you a man of action? You can use the internet to insult anyone about anything anywhere in the world right from your boat. Get going on that cartoon.
Believe me, had I the slightest talent for anything beyond the mechanical, I'd happily indulge. However, I've been to Saudi, Egypt, the Sudan, Indonesia, Morocco and Turkey (all Muslim countries) and have never once had a Muslim shove a piece of paper in my face, lectured me or in any other way tried to persuade me, cajole me or bully me into becoming a convert, unlike the christians who have done all that and more, almost everywhere I've ever been. So if I have a special dislike for the christians, it's because they have been invading my space for as long as I can remember.
I hear ya, bro. As systems of ideas, religions meet a natural selection process not unlike the evolution of organisms. Christianity has the most followers worldwide because its sells salvation better to weak minded people. (Rising from the dead seems to get their attention.)
Islam has evolved to counter the threat of Christians (and western television) with beheadings.
Charles Darwin would have a good laugh about the whole thing.
Praise be to Allah. Anyone who uses Allah in the wrong context must be eliminated.
I vaguely remember a teacher getting mad at me for "taking the lord's name in vain" when I was in elementary school or something. Never understood why she had me sit in the corner alone for the rest of the year. Maybe I had offended her without realizing it.
I feel bad for religious folks sometimes. Especially all those poor children that are forced to practice.
I say jesus christ and for god's sake or oh my god all the time. I'm an atheist, so why shouldnt I say it?
I don't think its a nice thing to do but theres much worse things than swearing.
I myself don't tend to to use God in my swearing but I loooove the word Fuck...fuck yeah, fuckitty fuckers!
