see, i think this is an important topic, b/c years ago, our parents never would have say words like "crap" or "Damn"...they would have said things like "hot dog! it's cool outside mabel!"

so, standards have changed. no one has a problem with saying "Crap". and why not?

Excuse my ignorance, and over-sensative concience, but are you saying "why not" to a christian saying such words? Please. Never may that be the case. I've heard crap, but D***. Are you serious? Don't we constantly get information about how the worlds standards are advancing from bad to worst, and how ours shouldn't?

whats the point of pushing the envelope? as Christians we're supposed to maintain our level of decency, not just to stay moral in comparison to the world surrounding us. I think its natural to become desensitized to stuff, which is why we gotta keep on top of it. our clean morals and speech is one of the ways we keep seperate from the world

Have you heard sh**? I was shocked when I heard a certain relation of mine that happens to be an elder use that word once.

"Now in case a soul sins in that he has heard public cursing and he is a witness or he has seen it or has come to know of it, if he does not report it, then he must answer for his error. Lev 5:1

I remember a sister in my hall said that in a comment during the watchtower study. She didn't get called on for the rest of the lesson. I think some elderly friends fainted too.

you can't do that!!!....haha, he musta been so embarassed

jay79 jay79OG 2001

Nah, my family doesn't get embarrassed...Esp because my bookstudy consists of me, my parents, my 2 sisters, 2 of my brothers, my brother in law, and this family that studied with my family and came into the truth. So its basically just like a family study.
