Atheists - No I use the expressions "Jesus!", "Jesus Christ!", "Goddammit" and others very often. It's influenced by religion, but I've gotten used to it. I could use expressions for Zeus, Thor or Hades if I wanted to, mythology is fine

No native - Yeah my language is influenced by religion as well. A popular phrase is "Deus do céu" that means "God of Heaven". But there's also the usual "oh my god" and other sentences that are directly translated
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
