does the use of profanity mean that we are committing sin?

Question

being that most words are made up by man does using profane words mean we are actaully committing a sin? if so which sin are we committing? often times we say someone is cursing, but if we were cursing a person wouldn't that mean we were actually casting a spell on that individual to do them harm? what do you all think?

Answer 1

If you have to ask the question then there must be something wrong about it. When you do something good do you question it? When you do something bad, or are about do something bad, and don't feel right about it...Then it must not be right!
A sin is a sin. Doesn't matter which one you break. And if you trully feel you wronged someone, and honestly feel bad, apologize to them. You'll feel better no matter what happens.

Answer 2

When you use profanity toward someone, it means you are slandering their good name, assinating their character, which falls under lying and killing in the 10 Comandments and is a sin.
Some people confuse cussing with cursing. People probably used to curse in the old days, ie:
"May your hair fall out" or "I hope you die". That
is a sin also, because Jesus said to love God and
love your neighbor.
