I think that when some of these folk use that kind of language, it's justified because "Jesus also got cross and called a spade a spade".
When we use that kind of language it simply shows what reprobates we are, under the influence of Satan. Hence we deserve it.
Gotta wonder what religion does to the minds of some personalities. With some, it inspires noble deeds. With others it inspires extreme stupidity and self glorification.
As an example, this last week, I’ve stuck a couple of YECs who are not backward in boasting of their intimate relationship with God, and who are not backward at implicitly calling you a liar, because you accept evolution and attempt to persuade others of its veracity. Yet at the same time, you catch them out on a few occasions literally doing just that which they damn you for - namely lying. Real, actual, true blue porkies. And they do it without conscience. It’s as if their interpretation of the Bible says that they can do it, but damnation to anyone else they think does it.
That really is religion gone screwball. I often wonder, does the religion make the personality like that, or is the personality attracted to that particular version of religion?
You get other folk who share the same religion, but are intelligent, articulate, and down right decent folk.
