[quote=Anonymous]I'm from New York, and until recently I had never heard that Oh my God was any kind of curse or swearing unless you traveled back in time a few hundred years. Up there it is uttered so often and so constantly by absolutely everyone that even a priest wouldn't raise an eyebrow - and might actually use the phrase himself. So it is completely bizarre to me that people down here say it's swearing - to me that is a uber religious and old-fashioned idea. So when teachers here take offense to it, I get angry - I am an atheist and feel strongly that this is Christian imposition on everyone else (of the Jesus freak variety, not even the normal kind of Christian). I don't know if this is common down here in the south, but it really irks me, to the point of hoping someone brings a lawsuit or something.[/quote]
