Bad Words

Roderick Usher 05-30-2007 01:56 PM

and i would assume her mother taught her the same as did most parents, but who is the first person to outlaw certain words?

some fools will say "it's in the Bible" referring to the third commandment against taking the Lord's name in vain. But these people who cringe at the words "God Damn" obviously do not know their Bible.

The commandment has nothing to do with cursing. It specifically says ""Thou shalt not use the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who uses His name in vain."

Not hold him guiltless? Somehow swearing is unforgivable? No. It isn't swearing that this commandment forbids - it is feigning holiness in order to practice wickedness. Like a politician who bends the inherent goodness and morality of the people to serve an illicit end.

This is the "Using the Lord's name in vain" against which the bible teaches - too bad so many people are so poorly educated on the subject. It is this ignorance that comes up with the concept of "bad words."
