I believe profanity is pretty well defined. What's
offensive to one, however, isn't necessarily offensive to another.
Is "damn" cursing? Certainly. Is it profanity? No. Is it offensive? I don't think so, nor would I T-up someone for it. That's very mild.
I don't think what offends is the big question, either. It comes down to what's appropriate for the setting. Carlin's seven words -- plus a few others he left out -- may not offend me, but they simply don't belong at a scholastic contest.
