Actually, ta-ta is NOT childlish at all, even though it may sound that. It's considered to be a high-society sort of farewell, used by people who consider themselves highly cultured, rich or famous. It is also used in a humorous way by people who are just average schmoes.
Bye-bye is a standard farewell. Nothing unusual about it.

For the benefit anyone not familiar with "TTFN," I should explain that it stands for "Ta-ta for now," an phrase commonly heard when parting from someone who was raised within the cultural orbit of England. "Ta-ta" itself means "goodbye" in baby talk, but is now used by a number of otherwise sane adults as a cheerful farewell. In Britain 'Ta' is short for 'Thanks' so using ta-ta would be like saying 'Thanks' twice over to distinguish saying 'Ta' once.
So you would say 'Ta' if someone gave you something, say a cup of tea, and Ta-ta when saying goodbye as if thanking whoever you spoke to for their company. In some parts of the country Ta-ta is said Ta-ra.
Bye-bye is like saying goodbye twice over and usually to adults you would say 'Bye' as short for 'Goodbye' and 'Bye-bye' to children or someone familiar. It's like saying Night-night to a child before they go to sleep.

certainly, the female who suggested that an abomination is WAAAAY worse than a sin is biblically incorrect. The biblical observe translated as abomination only means something close to no longer kosher interior the unique language. lots of issues that we evaluate ok on the instant are ABOMINATIONS interior the Bible. and because God does not substitute, that would desire to recommend that he under no circumstances theory they have been sins.
