[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I teach my children not to take the Lord's name in vain. It is wrong to say God's name when not in prayer, or irreverently. But several priests have told me that having a potty mouth, while vulgar, is not sinful. In order for cursing to rise to the level of a sin, it must be meant as a curse. Friends who lived in Europe have told me that priests from some countries swear terribly, but not sinfully ;)[/quote] Context matters, too. Here is a true story. Once I was finishing confession. It was a face-to-face confession in the Sacristy. As Father finished his final blessing I saw a mouse scurry along the wall behind Father. I was startled and said "Oh my G*d, there's a mouse." Father made me start my confession again and gave me an additional penance.[/quote]
