@therealalexandrabillings: Linguistic studies have shown that this is an actuality, not true. He is speaking from a place of religious indoctrination, not scientific study. Recent research suggests swearing can actually be linked to greater verbal fluency and even cognitive abilities. It can also be a tool for pain management and emotional release. But when you’ve been groomed through most of your life to believe that a book of myths and morals is actually a book of historical facts critical thinking is usually the last action taken. I hope this helps
