Arpee Posted February 11, 2011 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Swearing in The Holy Bible There is swearing in the bible. Some people say that some of the words weren't swear words, but I will talk about how swear words developed in another video. Here are a few verses to show you the type of language that is used in the bible...I'm reading from the "Good book" so technically, if you believe that the bible is the good book then you should find nothing vulgar about me quoting these bible verses... "For long ago I broke your yoke and burst your bonds; but you said, 'I will not serve.' Yes, on every high hill and under every green tree you bowed down like a whore." (Jeremiah 2:20) "But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own p*** with you?" - Isaiah 36:12 "So and more also do God unto the enemies of David, if I leave of all that pertain to him by the morning light any that p***eth against the wall." - 1 Samuel 25:22 "Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ..." (Philippians 3:8, KJV) Ok, so this last one needs a little more context for understanding. The part which says "and do count them but dung". In modern English this would say "I consider them as filth". However, "dung" is an old word which actually used as the way that the S word is used today which refers to feces. And here is a really good one: "Then Saul's anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said unto him, Thou son of the perverse rebellious woman, do not I know that thou hast chosen the son of Jesse to thine own confusion, and unto the confusion of thy mother's nakedness?" (1 Samuel 20:30, KJV) For these bible verses, I chose the King James version because this is the only version of the bible which all consider to be inspired from god. Some do not accept them newer translations. In the King James Bible this was translated as "Son of a perverse rebellious woman". In hebrew, what Saul said was "ben 'avah marduwth," which is very vulgar and it really means "Son of a B". There are also times when Jesus calls someone a "fox" or a "viper" which is as bad as calling someone a "Male donkey" or a "female dog" today. I really don't understand why saying swear words is such a big deal. The bible doesn't even say that it's a sin to use them it basically says "Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain." - Exodus 20:7 This means that saying "Oh my God" or "Sweet Jesus!" is a sin but saying "What the hell!?" isn't. Also, why are people forced into these rules anyway. Even if someone believes that swearing at all is a sin why is the whole society viewing swearing as something bad. Most of the time when I hear "hell" or "damn" I don't think "oo, someone said a swear word". Instead, I am thinking "Wow, they must feel really strongly about this since people only use those words when they are emotional!" and I think it's great. I think people should be using more swear words to intensify their speak and express how they feel about certain subject. In Japanese, they have ways of phrasing sentences so that the sentence can be more emotional and intense and when translated into english it is usually expressed as a swear word to get the emotion out so why not allow this creativity in english? Next video, I will back track where these "evil" word came from and how theySwearing and The "Holy" Bible There is swearing in the bible.

Joker1982 Posted April 5, 2011 #3 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Also, in Levitcus, it say when an issuse goes forth from u, u r unclean till evening. i take this as a refrence to masterbation. And in Deutoronomy "A b****** shall not enter into the congregation" Jesus himself was a b****** child, so this seen like a contradiction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in Deutoronomy "A b****** shall not enter into the congregation" Jesus himself was a b****** child, so this seen like a contradiction. Curse words are relative, as such B-tchin might mean more than your wife yelling at you. Those were the old days and meanings have been squed IMO. Yes ther is alot of bad dogma in the Bible. But I subscribe to all the blessed Love thats in there, and weed out the bad. If One could take the good out of every religion, and kick the bad to the curb, He would be left w/ The essence Of God. (Love) So, I think all should deffinatly cherry pick what is true and what is not. Check it against you'r heart if not sure. The Heart knows. God would say the same.

KRS_One Posted April 5, 2011 #10 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Those are bad words. Congratulations on finding them. Later, someone is going to say the word "balls" and I will be unable to stop giggling because I'm willing to suspend context for humor and shock value.

Next video, I will back track where these "evil" word came from and how theySwearing and The "Holy" Bible Ok so where are the swear words? I see a lot of colloquial words and words once used more than they are today such as dung p*** etc which wre once simple descriptive words, but, "swear words"? Only if you are about 10 years old. Second; Saying christ or lord is not taking his name in vain unless you intend it in vain. So if it is a prayer or a conversation thats perfectly acceptable. However if you use it as a swear word or with a group of swear words, and attach negative meaning to it, then it is unacceptable. But only god can tell if, when a bloke hits his thumb with a hammer and says "jesus christ," he is swearing or praying. There are 3 reasons i dont use swear words. First they are lazy and uncreative. Many more colourful adjectives can be used. Second they represent a loss of emotional control which i find unacceptable. Third they do genuinely offend certain people of differnt ages, or beliefs, or cultures, or just sensitivities, and i see no need to speak words that offend anyone and add notthing to a dialogue or understanding.
