Why should I? Listen to this: "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man." ...Colossians 4:6
See? "seasoned with salt". Swearing is known as "salty language". Even the Bible tells us to speak thus, so our message is clear and unmistakable.
Feel free to say "Well, I'll be dam*ed!"

Yes, for several weeks actually. Even if I get really mad at my kid I do not used expletives. Although yes I have slipped up on occasion on an especially bad day. I have religious reasons for this and this is what keeps me check. Without this I think I would be like most people and not care what comes out of my mouth unless I was at a friends house and they had kids and didn't want their kids to hear it.

Of course! I never use foul language. It is rude and not very lady-like at all. You cannot obtain respect from another individual if you use foul language.

Yes.
Foul language just proves the person is not capable of thinking of intelligent words on their own, and therefore rely on the ever so common "Beep" to get their point across.

Of course, I see no reason in general conversation to use any foul words. It can show a lack of intelligence, if that is how you speak in general.
I find nothing more ignorant then a person, who in public talks like that in front of other people and children. That's one of my big pet peeves.

Yes. I don't believe in the concept of 7 words being "bad" though. Words are words, use them when appropriate to express what you need to. I would have no problem going a day or longer without using one. I have plenty of other words....
