Yes, I think so.

In order to have a rich and meaningful language, it seems to me it should have words and phrases for the most beautiful and good of things, the most despicable and vile of things, and all manner of things in-between.

When and how these words are used is what matters, and, no doubt, there are plenty of people who could probably afford to think a bit more before speaking.

Exactly what I would have said.

50 characters. In some cases that is too much... For example, when what was said is what I would have said and instead of repeating I say the short sentence two lines up. The restriction should be removed. Trolls will always be trolls --> ......................................................................................... Was that line of dots difficult to do? Nope, hold the key down a few second and there you go.

AS A FLOWER THAT IS LOVELY AND BEAUTIFUL BUT IS SCENTLESS, EVEN SO FRUITLESS IS THE WELL-SPOKEN WORD OF ONE WHO DOES NOT PRACTISE IT.

BUDDHIST PROVERB.

Yes.

Well, mostly when you stub your toe on something or bump your head on the wall.

Research shows that shouting and swearing while being in pain actually reduces the pain by a large percent.

Side: Yes, It needs to be said.

It does. Shouting takes some of the concentration and energy used to feel pain, diverts it to other actions, like shouting and swearing. If you don't put your mind into feeling or noticing pain then you either won't feel it or the pain is smaller than with full concentration.

I've had some small cuts and stuff which I discovered hours later and only then I noticed they hurt a bit.

OK. I am aware that using the lords name in vain is a crime for several reasons but FUCK him and his fucking wanking buddies. It's just a bunch of wankers wasting their fucking time. I recommend sitting on your ass all day jerking off and smoking weed. Fuck you!

No, swearing isn't necessary, but it sure does feel good sometimes! Plus it adds dramatic effect. How fun is that!

You are both on the not swearing side and yet you say it is good once in a while. The debate is about swearing or not swearing. Even a little bit of swearing is swearing.

You say no while saying yes...

Side: Yes, It needs to be said.

Thank connerowesme... you know I hate swearing but I love you anyway :D

In my opinion I think swearing is bad because it is rude and its fithly language. It can insult someone and hurt there feelings.

I don't swear at all because in the Bible it says in Ephesians 4:29 "Do not have any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths but what it is right to build others up and that it might benefit to those who listen."

Epheisian 5:4 "Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving."

These option we've got both answer the question of the debate, and yet brings up anther question. I wish we could still create our own tags...

Anyway, to answer the ACTUAL question.

No. Swearing is not necessary. Neither is the computer you're reading this with, or the tv in you living room, or even REALLY the toilet in your bathroom. But guess what, it makes life a little easier, better, or just more amusing. So we want them.

I personally love swearing. I mean, they're just words. But if you use them correctly, it can make a point.

How some people cuss makes them look stupid. However, to prove a point at times, I say it. Really what is a cuss word? Thats it, it is just a word. Nothing else.

It is not nice to swear because someone might think you are yelling at them. I find it not nessary to constanly swear in public areas.

No there is no real reason for swearing really now is there? .......

Well, not really necessary, but I find it a good way to get rid of my anger and frustration sometimes. As long as you don't aim it at someone else, it's fine, well, to me. Besides, aren't they just words?

Side: Hell No, swearing is bad!

Well, I don't know if it's bad, exactly. It can be a good way to deal with anger, but it's definitely not necessary. I've never sworn in my life (seriously, I can't even spit them out, haha), and I have nothing against my friends who do, but it does makes me uncomfortable when it seems to be over something really, really minor (for example, I have a friends that swears whenever I mention a homework assignment we have to do). It's not like it's the end of the world, but it is certainly unpleasant.
