Why do Christians cringe when someone says the word fuck?

Not just Christians, it's like when someone can't help but scratch their ass in front of you, it's just kind of gross.

I dont care for the fucking shit myself.

seriously, one of the wife's favorite words, hate it and let her know often.

Love it when people use curse words. Lets me know the content of there character.

fucked if i know

I hardly ever use it. Except when I get really, really, really angry about something, which is very very rarely.

We are supposed to be clean in speech, as well as in thought and deed. That's why.

At least, that's how I try to operate.

It's a combination of lack of intelligence and/or crude behavior.

There is NO SUCH thing as a "Christian"

This WORD is not found in Scripture - but instead a name given to the "followers of Yah" by those that sought to KILL them for what they believed. These were gentle people who did nothing but heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out demons and love each other. For this, they were tortured and slaughtered.

For the record? The proper WORD for those who follow in the ways of Yahushua (aka Jesus Christ) is "Yahuan"

For the record? I am FAR MORE offended by the word "Christian" then I have EVER been by the word "Fuck"

The word "Fuck" is a vulgar word or COMMON word (vulgar means common)

so - If you are referring to the people (aka Christians) whose hypocrisy includes self-righteousness? Then look up what Yahushua had to say to those who sat in judgement of others, the very same people that turned the house of YHWH into a "den of robbers" then sent Him to the cross.

It's jarring to most that weren't raise to swear.

Most people understand it's use in anger but when it becomes a connective between other words in a sentence.

Fixed.

Why you twitch if i stick my penis in your ear? its just dick....

I think that a lot of people swear constantly because they think it makes them look tough in the eyes of people. Having lived on this planet for many years, I can now see through all that.

Also, most people I know can't even put a single sentence together without dropping the F-bomb at least three times.

Rather than make them look tough (in my view), it makes them look the opposite...as though they are pandering to the 'world's' view of how they should act, to be accepted.

It's a sign of weakness, for that reason.

Lots of programming

To the contrary, studies have shown a correlation between higher levels of intelligence and frequency of use of "swear" words.

Moreover, it's all totally arbitrary, the process of designating a word as being a "swear". The word f@ck (censored to protect the sensitive feelings of those, here ;) ) is not considered to be a curse word in England, from what I understand, yet the word "shag" often is. There is absolutely no meaning or significance behind such things other than that which we, ourselves, attach to them. As in the case of other matters, the public, in general, just follows and obeys what they're told -- in this instance, that a particular word is "bad", so they shouldn't ever, ever use it. Like sheep, they accept this conditioning without question, and modify their word choices accordingly.

Perhaps that's part of the reason why people possessing higher intelligence are apt to swear more? Maybe they see it for exactly what it is: another method of control.

Well we cringes at C word.

Only immigration use it mostly from the UK.

You can thanks the UN.

jesus fucking christ....is that all you think about ?

I think I agree with this. Most people who cringe at fuck wouldn't cringe at other languages' swear words.

and no to the stupid fuck who posted about a dick in my ear, something real to something that's just a word...big difference.

Right? It just sounds ugly coming out of a persons mouth.

It's even more troubling to hear a person who cusses at every other word.

It's just not foul to listen to.

Acts 11:26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.

I'm glad to be called a Christian. There's no shame in carrying the name of Christ.

Fuck em OP. If they don't like the word fuck then just fuck em.

it's just a word used by uncouth louts who never have much of value to say.

That's the problem - the lack of intelligence of the people who say it all the time, not the word itself.

See, it IS just a word. Overused by idiots.

why do you care?

I challenge you to find that scripture in the ORIGINAL GREEK. Then apply yourself to understanding what it means, not only in that culture - but in ours.

I carry the name of Yahusha - because I carry HIM in my heart. But - the name of "Christian" has become so sullied by the FAKE church - a fake church that doesn't love each other.

So, here it is again. In the Greek. Talking about LOVING one another - not striving to be RIGHT or "theologically correct" but rather striving to be ONE in Christ, by SERVING one another, rather than judging one another . . .

SOMETHING long since forgotten in our culture.

I am a Christian but I got chewed out this morning by a bunch of Christians when I said that due to the persecution of being utterly financially ruined for refusing to give service to homosexuals in gay marriage, Christians should just bake their cakes and decorate their flowers and keep our pearls to ourselves. I was told that God would hold me personally responsible for the sin of the gay marriage because I had participated. I said, when you are legally forced to participate or be driven out of business, you aren't going to be held accountable for their sin.

I was then told to watch out for my own soul, but I told them that if fighting is what Christians out to do, then why hadn't the churches stood up for Cakes by Melissa by offering to pay for her legal team and her fines as well as those faced by other Christians who stood up against gay marriage. I was lectured about a love of money and to watch out for my soul again.

I didn't go to church today. I didn't think I would be able to sit there without rocking back in forth because my anxiety was up. But still, doesn't it make sense that the church would stand up and protect these people, but I don't see that happening. Also, if this were the case, that God was going to hold me accountable for other people's sinfulness if I gave them service in the commission of the sin, then wouldn't I be guilty for not proselytyzing every person that I come across everyday. Wouldn't that be as big a sin as baking a cake for a gay wedding? I am so confused.

The only person I know who proselytyzes everyone is Ronald and everyone thinks that he has schizophrenia. He's mostly really nice, though. So, wouldn't every other Christian be guilty of letting people walk to by them and go to hell everyday? You would have to witness to all the people you work with and that could get you fired from your job. Maybe it's a love of money, but most Christians aren't doing this. I have worked, so I know they keep their mouths shut at work for the most part in order to keep their jobs.

People make me really sick sometimes.

It's a candy assed, thin skinned, fornicating goat thing. Get it?

Meh. Profanity is a cultural stigmatism.

Jesus used some pretty shocking language for his day when he talked about the pharasees...

He called them a brood of vipers, full of dead mans bones and he called them whited walls.

Whited walls were a term for the public bathrooms that people would use in those days against a wall that would then be painted over white again and again.

They looked clean on the outside but inside they were fill of shit. Essentially, Jesus was saying the pharasees were full of shit.

Then there's my sister who has cut me off because I told her that I told Father God on her for bullying and abusing me as a child. She's a big shot at her church, but she won't even talk to me now. This after I asked her if she thought I deserved a good job and she said that I would have to have a job where I didn't work with people and it would have to be where I didn't have to interact socially because I'm a social retard. That's when I told her that I told God on her.

Isn't Jesus wonderful. He doesn't mince words and God hears me say cuss words all the time, but He doesn't get too upset about it. I am really grateful for that.

Lets see if that's True.

OP, you're a fuckin idiot.


Any Christian want to Cringe or comment?

Its usually because its followed by the word "Head" if the christian is the one being talked to.
