It is my opinion and only my opinion that people who use words that are considered impolite and profane are people that just don't have anything intelligent to say in the first place. There is always a better word to use than one that will offend.

We are commanded by our Saviour Jesus Christ to love our neighbours and the use of the "a" word (not referring to a donkey) and the "b" word (not referring to a female dog) towards our brothers and sisters in Christ is not following Christ's command to love one another.

That is my worth.
