Thou shalt not use the Lord's name in vain?
That was my reaction too.... I'd personally rather hear someone use the "f-word" (demeaning humanity's glory) than to say "Oh My G ..." (demeaning God's glory).
"But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world." (Galatians 6:14)
I'm about as non-Roman-Catholic as they come (I'm a Reformation doctrine guy), but just don't have a hang-up on the differing ways that Protestants and Roman Catholics revere and display the cross/crucifix....
Well put. I might tack Pentecost on the end of that, but that's a minor quibble.
