My son had a couple of football recruiting visits at ‘Cuse and at the summer football camp, he got a linebackers coach who was quite foul mouthed, bordering on abuse. This was during the Robinson era and it’s a good thing ‘Cuse jettisoned him!

I’m a Catholic and my wife is Baptist. We raised the kids Catholic with my wife’s Baptist influence. They all recieved the Sacraments. Our youngest had his second Baptism at Baptist church with our blessings and he and his wife are Evangelical Christians. “What a strange trip it’s been” ... ;-)

That's an interesting comment. I was a Christian when I went into the military. The cursing never bothered me nor was anyone ever bothered by my non-cursing. Of course, those were the days when cursing really meant something if someone was to deconstruct the sentence.

How times have sure changed. Cursing now is not only looked upon as something people expect of someone, but it has become abusive. If you don't curse or throw in a "F" word occasionally and get in someone's face when you say it, you're deemed strange. If one were to deconstruct some of these sentences they can readily understand that people throw in curse words for lack of a proper vocabulary. But, more importantly, I see this as a breakdown of morality.
