You know, I've never said Oh My God before. I've said plenty of "Holy ****" or "Holy Crap" or "Holy other stuff", but I think that's just ingrained in modern society and has absolutely nothing to do with religion.

It's been ingrained into our vocabulary so much from being believers that now we kind of can't help it.
It's not like just because we might slip and say "Oh my God", that we actually believe in God.
If I ride a Peter Pan bus, does that mean I believe in Peter Pan?

Common form of expression we all grow up with and are used to.

I usually say, "Oh their god."

I don't. I think the ones that do though are just repeating memes that are stuck in their heads.

First of all, it's 'oh my god' not "God"...
Secondly, it's a turn of phrase...nothing more.

Evidently because they are as mindless as most supposed Christians.
