I hate exposing them to bad words, I would much rather they volunteer to go to Iraq and then,.... have them sent back a few weeks later.

Just who are we trying to kid anyway? Are we going to try and fool ourselves into thinking that we have achieved a certain level of virtuousness just because we don’t type certain words when all the while we are a part of some of the most evil nations ever.

Don’t get me wrong, I am not advocating the use of slang(which happens all the time on this site) or offensive language, but give this world just a few more short years, and even these words that seem so offensive at this time, will not only be accepted, but even find their way into our language as official words and into our dictionaries. I could give you several examples of a few words that have done just that within the last 50 years.

Hypocritical aristocratic influence drives a nation into falsehood.

Well, maybe they'll be in the dictionary, and maybe they will be an official word, but to me it will never be anything more then offensive..... I guess I will never understand how vulgarity should be acceptable. Our written word has done quite well without it for many years. Virtuosity has nothing to do with it. It's just common courtesy and consideration..... Maybe if we all lower our standards to the lowest common denominator life will improve??? I doubt it.....
