I do not believe swear words are a matter of holiness

Slade and I have a different perspective on holiness. I certainly understand his points, but I would like to register with the list that I strongly object to the use of swear words. Some people find it humorous, but I do not. I prefer Terry's phrase of "dog doo-doo" to the s-word. Dung also would be appropriate. I would not like language used on the list that would embarass me if any of my children read the posts. Please consider using a little restraint in your word choices. This list is not for adults only, and something seems wrong to me when people of the world restrict certain words from their medium of communication (e.g. broadcast television) that Christians would use and justify.


Peace be with you.
David Miller.
