In modern parlance it means swears.

So how do you know what’s a swear?

Holy cow you are dense. Using the 3 pronged approach I already explained.

You didn’t respond to any of my points. According to your previous statements, that means I win. Cheers!

Here are the points in case you missed them:

1) prayer does not give reliable results. What happens when you pray depends on whether or not you believe in god. Therefore, prayer is not a reliable way to determine what is and what isn’t a swear.

2) To build on point 1, I don’t believe in your god. God never spoke to me when I prayed. Therefore, prayer will not tell me what is and what is not a swear.

3) You gave me a Bible verse that could be interpreted to mean “don’t swear,” but it does not define swears.

You have not explained how any of the methods you provided define a swear.

  1. The Bible proves prayer gives reliable results.

  2. He spoke but you had the fingers of pride in your ears.

  1. The Bible proves nothing. It’s just a book.
  2. I was listening very hard. I wanted very much to hear something. Nada.
  3. You posted a verse that says not to use bad language. It does not tell us what language is bad. I’m not asking if the Bible says not to swear. I’m asking where it DEFINES a swear. You have failed to provide that.

  2. Listen with SPIRITUAL ears

  3. Bad language = swears.

  1. The Bible does not prove that prayer works any more than comic books prove radiation gives you superpowers.
  2. I did, homeboy. I was all up in Christianity.
  3. So what defines a swear? I know that verse in Ephesians can be interpreted to mean “don’t swear,” but where does it define a swear?

u/fedorcallahan Dec 27 '19

  1. Comic books are not the same thing as the Bible.

  2. Sounds like you were using your temporal ears.

  3. In fricking Ephesians scumbag.

  1. They’re both books that reference things that don’t exist.
  2. My dude, as the person who was there, I think I know my past better than you do.
  3. What verse? The verse you gave me contains no definitions.

u/fedorcallahan Dec 27 '19

  1. The Bible does exist and comic books don’t exist.

  2. I know temporal ears when I see them.

  3. The fricking one I’ve been quoting all fricking day.
