Best of Archive Series – 7 Words Americans Should Stop Using Until Further Investigation
New American Prophet ^ | February 22, 2025 | Michael Bresciani

Posted on 02/22/2025 7:42:16 AM PST by Rev M. Bresciani

Americans repeat certain words with mindless ease without once regarding their definitions, their real meanings or their connotative meanings. Their use or perhaps their misuse is a good reflection of the health of our culture or the lack of it.

Without including four letter words and expletives with the exception of…love, you will not be able to reach the end of this list without remembering that you have probably heard one or more of these words today alone. If you do not recall hearing them for a while it may be that you live an isolated life in the mountains or you have found company that would be the envy of any halfway intelligent person.

I read the article twice to try to grok the author’s intent - still not getting why these words bother him.

The words:

relationship
love
fun
psychiatrist
religion
romance
commercials

I would rather that folks start omitting George Carlin's 7 words.

Well, with a link to ‘new.americanprophet’, I was expecting the 7 words to include some of Chris Rosebrough’s ‘prophecy bingo’ words, such as:

declare, shaking, proclaim, birthing, atmosphere, position, assignment, and many others...

Why not post the entire article? Not clicking on the link to your website.

I'll stick with the first amendment, no 7 word omissions there.

Anything related to the psychiatric/field of psychology vocabulary is bogus. Total fraud. Whatever it might have been, it's now a vehicle for debauchery and lawlessness.

I minored in psych in college and was disgusted at how fluid the whole academic realm is. What was a disorder yesterday becomes acceptable today and becomes mandatory tomorrow.

You've a better chance on your own than under the care of one of these pimps.

You’re supposed to click on the link to find out. Posts like this one aren’t much different than teasers like: “Here’s one secret the insurance companies don’t want you to know!”

Stop saying:

“That begs the question...” (i.e., a type of formal error in logic)

When you actually mean:

“That raises the (following) question...”

Ur Welcome!

I totally agree.

I see so much potential in studying human psychology. Why do people think the way they do? Why do people make good or bad choices? How can we raise children to be happy and productive? How can we reduce mental illness? All of this is worth serious effort.

But the field of psychology today is, I am convinced, making all of these things worse, not better. It is a bad field. Totally taken over by evil lunatics.

The capitalized word”Black” when it isn’t the first word in a sentence, and refers to a people group whose skin contain a richer amount of melanin pigmentation.

It’s an adjective, not a proper noun. Morons.
