That didn’t stop Mahomet, piss be upon him.

The Bible says for us to not curse anyone, but simply rebuke them

1:8 -Yet in the same way these men, also by dreaming, defile the flesh, and reject authority, and revile angelic majesties.

1:9 - [In Context|Original Greek] But Michael the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"

We're to not curse our enemies, even the SAtanic hosts. Let the Lord handle that one.

Sir,

With due respect, it would appear from your post that you do not know what a curse is. The phrase you cite with which to take exception as a curse is, possibly, a sarcastic insult, or, perhaps a vulgarity or even an obscenity or a profanity to a Muslim, but not a curse.

Paul admonished Timothy against using poor language, and elsewhere in the New Testament, Christians are told to love their neighbors as themselves and to “turn the other cheek.” However, insulting dead, admittedly unrepentant pedophiles is not proscribed anywhere in the New Testament. Christ, Himself, insulted Pharisees by calling them a “generation of vipers.” On second thought, maybe it was the vipers who were insulted…

Of course, you could call such an insult a “stumbling block” to Mohammedans. However, simply failing to deny Christ is the Divine Son of God along with failure to acknowledge Mahomet as Allah’s prophet is also considered a stumbling block by Mohammedans. Therefore, the question remains, where should one “draw the line.”

For your edification on separation of cursing from vulgarity, obscenity and profanity, I have included below some definitions.
