Use of religious language in every day speech
#7
RE: Use of religious language in every day speech
I tend not to notice when people say religious phrases in the place of profanity. I tend to do it myself, though more when I'm shocked than when I'm angry or disgusted.

I do, however, know people who get offended by anyone "taking the lord's name in vain", so I'd say it really just depends on the person.

It seems like very religious people actually use those terms less than more secular people, but maybe I'm wrong.
What falls away is always, and is near.

Also, I am not pretending to be female, this profile picture is my wonderful girlfriend. XD
