If you cannot defend your assertion that The Catholic used profanity, you should consider withdrawing it and apologizing. Otherwise, make your case and explain why you consider it profanity. Perhaps the Catholic is the one who should explain why the phrase, "I don't give a damn", isn't profanity.
Dollars to donuts you stand up in polite society and say "I don't give a damn" people will know it's profanity.

It seems to me you cannot defend your accusation and now want the accused to prove his or her innocence. Were I to use a similar construct as you, I would tar The Protestant with some overreach and be wrong; which is why my conscience helps keep me from sinning against you, or another, like that.
Context:
Obviously variations of the English word damn are found in King James Version so, prima facie, it is not obscene. Neither did the phrase blaspheme. Neither was the phrase used a curse against you. It seems to me it was "expressing anger, surprise, or frustration."
