Wow... did you break an ankle landing after jumping to that conclusion?
Are you disputing the fact that I am correct and you are mistaken? Kindly respond to the inquiry.

You asked questions. Questions aren't "correct"; that's a category error. You made a baseless leap of assumption that I'm an atheist, which is both unwise and unkind.

However, as you're new here, you get one chance to try again.

Question: How many of you believe cursing, foul language, and swearing is a sin?
Is it a sin? Using the Lord's name in vain certainly is. The bottom line for me is I don't like to here it. Social media posts are full of it and it adds nothing, and detracts from the messages people are sharing. I see it as a lack of maturity and couth. It exudes ignorance, though that may not be the case.

Yes, I view foul language as verbal pollution of the environment. Perhaps fines should be assessed for such littering, but what would be the equivalent of a trash can option?

Please clarify the intended method of retrying. I was merely inquiring about the possibility of you being an atheist. If you are averse to questioning, that is your prerogative. The Constitution's protection of free speech does not prevent the right to ask questions. If you are averse to questions, that is your prerogative. I have committed no wrongdoing. If my words have offended anyone, I sincerely apologize. People often associate your writing style with atheism. This is a scenario I have encountered many times previously. However, I am unable to dedicate time to arguments or debates. Let us move forward.

Thank you.

No, I'm definitely not an atheist. Jesus is Lord!

I have no problem with answering questions unless they imply unwarranted assumptions, which yours seemed to do. As that was not your intention, I forgive you.

Isaiah 6:6-7 "Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with tongs from the altar.
And he touched my mouth with it, and said;"
"Behold, this has touched your lips;
Your iniquity is taken away,
And your sin purged"
