Swear words are special words, that you shouldn’t use just any fucking time you feel like it.
[off topic] When the Bible says ‘don’t take the Lord’s name in vain’ it doesn’t mean that you are damned for cursing. It means that you shouldn’t lie under oath.
Most religion interprets that commandment as “don’t say God unless you’re actually praying to him.”
“Damn” is fine. “God damn” is taking the Lord’s name in vain.
“In vain” itself is a weird expression, meaning mostly “to no effect” [0]. So dont invoke God’s judgement unless you’re 100% sure, but its not really clear whether he’ll damn you if you’re not.
I think there’s plenty of interpretations of this (as always)
What?? You mean a 5,000 year old book that’s been translated and retranslated eighteen times is ‘open to interpretation?’
Any interpretation is fine, as long as it’s my interpretation, of course.
and only my version is correct, obviously. /s
Lol. You beat me to it. But lucky for both of us, our beliefs are completely identical.
ok, now how do I add an image, wait, i think I figured it out
