You do realize how remarkably obscene and offensive that is don't you? If you do not already realize that, you are stupid. Otherwise, you are a cretin.

Nope. Not on this. Public obscenity has gone way to far. I will not sit back silently when cretins use such filth, either.

There is no excuse for it.

I agree 100% If this was meant to represent God's name in vain, I too find it in very poor taste, and extremely offensive. Hopefully he used the official Internet shorthand, in which OMG stand for "Oh My Gosh."

No, but you most certainly can delete it if you choose.

How old are you Rich, nine? Well, that is unfair. There is not a nine year old on my son's team that does not have more respect and and civility than you.

Perhaps the board is too full of cretins for the easily offended to continue frequenting it.

Easily offended? Is this where we have sunk? Someone uses F***ing and God together and if someone objects, he is easily offended?

Good grief.

Because THIS and THIS would lend credence to the opinion that you are less than truthful as well as a cretin.

Funny. One of you says OMG is the "official Internet shorthand", thereby implying OMFG isn't, but the other gives a link that show OMFG seems to be somewhat official (if not, widely recognized).

I'd say that unless we're posting on a 700 Club forum, your sensitivity is a bit over the top.

C'mon Tim, don't tell me that Obama's ridiculous appearance on the ND campus has turned you into a cretin too!

I do not allow GD or JC to be used as swear words on a ballfield, and I do find it offensive online as well. It is uncouth and uncalled for in any civilized conversation. I find it equally offensive when Tiger uses it into the TV mike to describe a bad shot. Great example for kids he sets there.

Be not deceived. God is not mocked.
