Why are we having this discussion? Why are we dedicating such _exegesis to a word that 10-year olds would openly laugh at for its quaintness?
This censorship is going way over its bounds, if you ask me. I do not think it is doing anything to further its stated goal; and as evidenced by the existence of this discussion, it's an impediment to writing material for the game. It's also a waste of our time. A good rule of thumb for censorship is that if said censorship would, if fairly applied, flag the bible as unsuitable for children; then it's too strong.
