True but Gosh is typically used as a surrogate for God just as Jiminy Cricket or Jeez are often used in lieu of saying Jesus Christ verbatim in vain. Often someone is catching themself and avoiding actually verbalizing their thoughts and intended meaning.

No way an army of Mods could or even should police all that...this was just my heartfelt reminder to all that words mean things, some sacred....

Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Could you include posting pictures of Helen Thomas
as vulgar?

Believe it or not, gee, geesh, jeez, golly & gosh are among the "you think it, you did it" kind of sins. I'm not sure about, "oh my goodness" or yer basic, "oh my". I don't point this out, cuz I expect that level of scrutiny.

I'll make an effort to clean up my own language & appreciate the heads up.
