Re: Curse words
I see people in here interchanging "cursing" with "swearing". Big difference.
Cursing is actually pronouncing a curse on someone. "go to......." is a curse. You want them to be dammed forever.
Swearing is using "forbidden" words everything from the "Sissy" words to the the big "F" word.
I don't wish anyone go to Hell, so I won't curse them or wish it on them.
I have been taught by parents, who didn't go to church, by the way, that even the f**t word was swearing and I wasn't allowed to say it.
I was taught that people with a vocabulary didn't need to use "gutter talk" as my mother used to put it.
But I remember one time mumbling "shoot" under my breath and the pastor said, "What did you say?" When I told him, he said "if it sounds that bad either quit saying it or say it out loud so it doesn't sound like what I THOUGHT you said." ROFL
