this girl knows about my MI though, so hopefully she'll see it as just a bad day/ bad episode
And if you’d sworn in conversation with a Muslim?

Would you still feel as bad?

I enjoy swearing, particularly in conversation with those who might disapprove. Why feel bad about it? And it isn’t true that all Christians disapprove of cursing - Jesuits let fly with new ways of swearing daily.

If I were you I would not feel bad - these curse words, swear words... they’re just words that we usually use to express vehemence (although sometimes, yes, to call another a pustulous boil, or something like it).
