As usual the point goes well over your head.

And I am sure as fuck not giving up goddamnit.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Or F.U.C.K. for that matter. For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, the acronym they would display on the stocks when they found a couple having sex outside of marriage; ha ha you were caught fucking. Yes, I've heard about it having roots in german related to flicken, meaning to strike or there is that story about the longbowman who kept their middle fingers so they would raise them and tell the army they could still "pluck yew" but I think those are just troll accounts of the etymology of the wonderful word fuck in my opinion.

Are there any more commonplace religious sayings? God only knows.
