Using God/Christ in negative threads

Hi all, I’m a long time mumsnetter but finding it hard to read constant threads (as a Christian) that use phrases starting with ‘ for G*d’s sake ( insert some nasty phrase about something) . We don’t accept racist or phobic language so why is it okay to use God, Jesus, Christ etc in these contexts? It’s really uncomfortable to read constantly 🙁

I haven’t so much ignored them as been unable to wade through 28 pages. You aren’t owed a response.

I'm not talking about myself, I don't need your response. But even very recent posts have been aggressive to religious people. Very typical that you and others like you are only concerned with ad homs when they're aimed at people you agree with.

You and others like you

Please define.

All of you on this thread who are being aggressive or hypocritical to religious people who have dared to (respectfully) voice an opinion.

@ClaudiaWankleman

Judging by your mini-froth, I think you feel rather more passionate about it than I do

A truly lazy ad hominem response.

It’s not appropriate for you to push your beliefs onto teenagers, because it is the freedom of belief that we have that allows you the right to continue believing whatever you do. You are threatening your own freedom in doing so.

It is as illogical as me ordering you to say ‘Jesus’ when you don’t want to.

The teenagers can believe what they like. My response is in relation to an educational setting and we are meant to be modelling professionalism and good behaviour so any sort of expletives are discouraged
