Lets just cut to the quick. I think the problem Bro. Brown is that you
perceive "profanity" where others do not.

By the way, I dont think I have ever used the "fag" word before or
since I was saved. I just have a problem with labeling things
off-limits because certain people think so.

I certainly feel there is nothing "sacreligious" about plain talk.
