I hate to admit that I can have a pretty foul mouth. But I never curse in front of little kids, the elderly, or clergy.

I one time said something bad in my head, that was a swear and used something like that as an adjective. So there should be an option in the pool for I never want to swear, but if it accidentally happens, the answer would be rarely. God bless.

Yeah, its something that just doesn't seem to want to leave me, even after praying about it.

There’s no reason to swear unless an anvil falls on your foot, or something, and even then maybe you shouldn’t swear.

I can have a pretty foul mouth when I'm by myself and no one can hear. I cat get irritated at clusters of everyday things, and bad things just fly out. Sometimes a lot (my cat hears the worst of it, haha). Sometimes when my next door neighbors are being really loud and drunk I will get mad and secretly flip them off (not to their faces!! But through the wall) cause they won't shut up. :rolleyes:

But I never say major swears around other people if I can help it. It isn't very nice, and they don't need to hear that.

Yes, They're just words. Depends on how you use them. Swearing or cursing. They're just words.

My family taught me to never swear. I didn't grow up in a Christian household, but the kids at school thought I was Christian because I didn't swear! So it's important that we don't swear because people are watching. "Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers." Ephesians 4:29

Only occassionally under my breath. I remember starting to swear in 5th and I only said one word. I felt so bad tht I somehow stopped. Later on in 7th grade I cursed like a sailor. But at some point I really didn't want to. That is when I started seeking God. So I asked my friend to punch me every time I cussed. It worked.

Generally i don't. Mostly i only do when i get angry, and even then only to myself and not in front of others. I may let an occasional word slip around someone i know won't mind, but for the most part i don't like doing it.

Who are you calling a sailor. I'm a Marine, not some squid. They are our taxi drivers.

i have to admit that i have slipped and said a word or two , but i usually will use the first letter but that's just as bad , i made it a point to try and stop . when asked on an application or form if you speak a second language i'm pretty sure they mean french or spanish not swearing
maybe that should be added that way more people will be considered bilingual
