GOD DAMN, BILLY GRAHAM!
One of my favorite phrases to use. A friend one time asked me not to use it, atleast around her. I don't see anything wrong with it. By the way, I am spiritual but not religious.

Maybe you should be more polite in front of everyone.

Well if you believe in the Jewish or Christian God then you have to believe in the 10 commandments and it tells you not to use the Lord thy God's name in vein.
So it is wrong. I also think that you should respect others around you who may find it inappropriate and refrain from using this phrase around them. Just common respect for others.

Respect your friends wishes. (If you trully respect your friend)
Offensive? To Me??? No; Not really. To others? Quite possibly.
Be carefull in who's company you use this term. You may alienate
somone for life.

Religion means community. By saying you are spiritual but not religious you're saying you have no community. No friends.
Awwww. How sad for you.
Honestly, I wouldn't want anyone damned.

Some will find it offensive because you are using the name of there non-existent imaginary deity in vain.

In the vast realm of stupid questions - you have achieved a status that some would consider legendary. Keep up the good work.

There are people who find the words "Have a nice day" to be offensive. Need I really say anymore?

Whenever you use God's name as a curse word, that is called blasphemy. God is holy.

My ex-boyfriend used to say (and probably still does say) "God-f*cking-dammit!" A lot. That's almost as bad. :-)
