More damage is done in this way than the use of slang.
I'm not saying that we shouldn't be careful to not offend in the choice of expletives we use because we should. But it's all pretty subjective what is and isn't "okay".
Some people regularly use the word Jesus or God or Lord offhandedly and certainly not appropriately as far as I'm concerned but they think nothing of it. But if another person used the word ............ (which I never associated with what many do - to me it meant rubbish or garbage) they'd be offended.
So there ya go.
