Well they used to get upset being called "queer" and now they say it
themselves. The subject of language was over extensively covered last
month and let it just suffice that shock-preaching does not entice me. I
also do not partcipate in it.
Jesus may have used some strong language to have called the
Syro-phonecian woman a dog or the scribes snakes or the high priest a
tomb, but I do not believe he used profanity- neither shall I. God
delivered my tongue!
