Why do christians think that swearing is bad?

Question

I mean does anybody know what sh*t means apart from poo? what does f*ck mean except sex?
Christians are idiots
why do they believe in some guy who has it all when we don't?
what happens to those passionate believers when they don't get picked to go to heaven?
of course the answer is that the people will go to hell, side with the dark lord and take over the heaven and burn god, jesus and a couple of angels too.

Answer 1

Isn't most politeness or standing on ceremony a plastic facade of handed down etiquette.as far as idiots maybe they are wierd in one area however aside from this compartment full of false means to a hopefully good end fantasies for realities and superstitions in general the rest of the Christians brain seems quite intelligent as a rule and actually has contributed to the science that is slowly replacing the fading grasp of an antiquated Christian brotherhood. Hell is on earth .
peaceout

Answer 2

Swearing is not necessarily evil, but it's certainly not good manners, and it usually means that the person is not respecting that at which they are swearing. Christians are supposed to treat everyone with respect, and treat items well.

Some Christians are idiots, true, but so are some of every other group. God has it all because He is God (and I know that this is a bad answer, but one has to take it on faith and tremendous studying), and we don't because, as is quite obvious, we screw up a lot.

I do not know the denomination of which you speak -- it sounds a bit like Calvinism -- but I think many Christians (and certainly Catholics) believe that passionate believers all get to go to Heaven because the passionate believers have great faith and do good works. Your last part is, I think, daft.

Answer 3

What is it you really want to know from a Christian? I mean, those aren't really the questions you want to ask are they? The words you refer to are abitrary, it's the meaning and intent society puts on them. Why is the "N" word bad? Simple, it's the connatation placed on it by society and it offends. As far as "believing in some guy who has it all"? Would you want to suffer what Christ suffered? With authority comes responsibility, I'm not sure any of us wants that kind of responsibility. Your questions demonstrate your searching for answers even though your trying to offend Christians. It's easy to be offended, I choose to find out why your filled with hate.

Answer 4

1Pe 2:1
Rid yourselves, then, of all evil; no more lying or hypocrisy or jealousy or insulting language.
(GNB translation)

As a Christian other's hopefully can see Christ through his followers actions. If we speak with vulgar language will they see what Christ can do in the lives of true believers? I don't think so.

Answer 5

swearing is bad:

1 Corinthians 15:33

Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.

Ephesians 4:29

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

Colossians 3:8

But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.

Answer 6

Colossians 4:6
Let your speech be always with GRACE seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
