I say 'oh my god' and 'jesus!' all the time, those are expressions influenced by religion, but then again so is our calendar, and I'm not going to stop using it because of it. In fact, don't ask me why but I feel relieved when I say 'jesus!' everytime something out of the ordinary happens, I find the name jesus to be funny. Christians, don't take this as a ticked to convert me!

Thanks. I feel less embarrassed now. Yeah using words for days that are based on norse gods doesn't bring me any closer to being a follower of Odin or his pantheon.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
