The censorship of words on message boards got me thinking a bit. Over the years I've seen and heard many people that are very religious and/or against swearing do so themselves.
For instance, my Mom, who is a very much Catholic would never swear or use the Lord's name in vain....that is until I was about 17 years old
Yep, 17 years old and I had never heard my Mom say even the slightest of swear words. I guess I must have pushed her to the point for her to say sh*t. I was absolutely shocked and knew right away that she was really really mad at me. Hey, I was 17 and knew evrything about everything. I'm guessing most all of you were the same.
And then there were the people that said they didn't believe in God but yet when something was going wrong in their lives, they'd turn to God or Jesus right away. You know, the guy that will hurt themselves and say "Jesus Christ, that hurt like a MF'r!!"
so, how many of you out there aren't religious yet you've asked for God's help at some point in your life?
