Study Finds Swearing Makes Pain More Tolerable

<< < (3/3)

Craig:
I know this thread was probably meant to be humorous but I thought we should look at it another way also.

If I say crap instead of ****, or shoot or darn etc.  What is it we really mean?  What are we thinking when we substitute another word.  Is not thinking of adultery or lusting after another the same as committing the act?

If we get angry and say "OH DARN!", yes we cleaned up the language but have we cleaned up our thoughts and actions?  I think in God's eyes we are as guilty as if we said the "dirty" word, because He IS concerned about our thoughts and actions.

Just points to ponder.
