Watch ANY Woody Allen movie.

Though raised Jewish, Woody Allen is an avowed atheist.

Yet he uses “Jesus Christ” as a curse, an expression of surprise, an expression of puzzlement, an expression of sexual frustration, an expression of hunger, an expression of despair, or whatever, in nearly every one of his movies.

It is a pseudo-intellectual conceit.

However, the name of no other deity worshiped by any other tribe or language group on earth carries as much linguistic and emotional power.

Oh Thor! Oh Osiris! Oh Ares! Oh Marx! YAWN.

There is only one god,
and he is the sun god...
Ra! Ra! Ra!
