2. What words are you using? The D-word, or something worse? I would say that the D-word is the one word that is the least bad of all the cuss words that exist (not saying that it’s right, but that it is not as terrible as saying the S-word or something).
No, it’s not right, and it’s not as harsh as other words, but r…

@perfectfifths, No Claire is not my real name. (surprise, everyone! :P) I’d rather not say what my name is on a forum as open to the internet as this, but it starts with B (and I would be willing to tell you if you want.) We were in Perth from about, let’s see… 2004 – 2008 and then late 2009 – early 2010, then we set off to PNG as missionaries…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy That is true. I suppose that one would say about a favorite desert, “This is heavenly,” that makes sense. Then it just goes back to Romans 14.
About what @winter-rose said. Yes, we need to be careful; and this too, we need to be sensitive to whom our audience is. Children don’t need their heads in that stuff. Teens don’t need to be…[Read more] -

On similes using heaven and hell, I think its ok sparingly. The reason I say sparingly is because you don’t want to trivialize heaven and hell into a byword.
Here I must disagree with you, though I’m glad you agreed with me first off.

@daeus Well, I don’t think that cursing or coarse language should be in a book, or in movies, or anywhere. I have a few reason that I’d like to point out (please keep in mind that I haven’t read much of the other points that people have made. )
1. When I read, words stand out to me. Each word has a meaning. So, the word stays in my head for…[Read more] -
