I find prosperity theology or the fact that the average salary in the US of a pastor was $99,000 when the average salary of all other occupations in the US was $40,000 a hell of a lot more offensive than the word “ass” or “[bleep]”. Never understood how A Man of God could live in a fancy personage, utilities paid, car/clothing allowance, making 2-3 times his average parishioner, and gfet up there pounding them to "give 'till it hurts". I have one in mind. In the 80s he was living that life with a $50k salary. At a time when few here made $10/hr. Average family still under $45k. Plus, with a farming congregation, he rarely bought food. When he retired in the 90s, they did a fundraiser, with the thermometer sign showing progress out buy the road, to help him buy a house in retirement. I hauled blacktop for his 1/2 mile driveway leading to a $300k house. Always wondered if thats how one is supposed to $erve the Lord, and $erve his fellow man? PS. He really did preach the tithing sermon often, and did use the "til it hurts" line. Never thought much good of that phugger disguised and a preacher!

Cursing is different than cussing. Cussing is just language, to curse someone is based on intent to deny someone salvation, spiritual wellbeing, sunder from God.
Any judgment of another's salvation, even without 'cuss' words is a curse... and frowned on by God.

It’s just a [bleep] word. This world has bigger problems and doesn’t need the holier than thou judging at every corner, just like JG, fake ass Christian.
Have we ever met?
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Bad habit Jack, myself I try to be Christ like.
That's me? There’s nothing in the Bible other than taking the lords name in vain? Jesus could’ve cursed like a drunken sailor... No, HE couldn't. Shows a very poor command of the English language actually. Serious question. Please explain. It’s a sound. There are 7,102 languages in the world. I’m fluent in one and got a decent grasp of another. That means there are 7,100 more that I have no idea what the sounds mean, so by default I can’t be offended by the sounds they’re making. As long as my actions are pure why would my words be an issue?

Most of the classy people I know curse very little, or not at all. It’s still a free country. Talk how you choose. Remember, though, that folks will draw conclusions about your character and intelligence based on your use of language.

Kent I should edit the title of my OP. I cuss, not curse. I’d never seek to deny a person entrance to whatever wonderful afterlife they believe in.

I hate most people I’m exposed too, so their opinion of my character doesn’t weigh heavily upon me.

Jack,
...Cursing is an attitude & thoroughly exposes ones illiteracy... uh...no "Surprisingly, the study found people with “swear word fluency” typically scored higher on IQ tests than those who were not well versed in swear words." People Who Cuss Are Smarter, Funnier and Healthier

Eventually bible study will end for the evening, then rest of us can resume playing cards, smoking cigars, and calling each other vile names.
