I think where people get hung up is her actually typing out the words. http://alesrarus.funkydung.com/archives/1905#comment-2843 Joe Tue, 30 Nov 1999 00:00:00 +0000 http://alesrarus.funkydung.com/wordpress/archives/1910#comment-2843 I can add nothing here - this is an outstanding post. You've brought up points I didn't consider and said some things I didn't have the $*#@s to say. Well done! http://alesrarus.funkydung.com/archives/1905#comment-2844 edey Tue, 30 Nov 1999 00:00:00 +0000 http://alesrarus.funkydung.com/wordpress/archives/1910#comment-2844 i love that chesterton quotation. :) not only is it from "orthodoxy" but dorothy day quotes it in her autobiography "the long loneliness". <br /><br />"edey likes chesterton. heh" ;) not only is it from "orthodoxy" but dorothy day quotes it in her autobiography "the long loneliness".

My post, however, wasn't a justification of swearing or saying the f words. It was a post reflection on how I am right now. For a long time I've kept that from my readers, a little embarassed and maybe a bit indignant of what they would think. But I realise I'll just come out and tell people - hey, I swear. <br /><br />And when I mean apathetic, it has nothing to do with the lack of care for others. If that's true, then my blog will be peppered with f words (which I don't use often!) and the usual other variety I usem "My God," "God!" being one of them.<br /><br />My apathy comes from emotional tiredness.I'm actually, at this stage, lack enthusiasm for religious things and matters. And this leads me to not caring about how other Christians perceive me. Is this wrong? Maybe. Like I said at the end of my post - this is how I am right now. I wish Iwas somewhere else, but I'm here right now.<br /><br />Personally resolve is - swear and don't bother to hide your swear words behind pithy words OR don't swear at all.<br /><br />I'm aiming for the latter, believe it or not.
