    When you bleep out words in the Bible like, ass, you make it seem like God was swearing. People can look it up in the dictionary if they don't know what an ass is. Why make the world think God was using bad language and YOU corrected Him? You are taking words out of the Bible and woe unto you!

    Hello, sorry to respond so late. I'm a Christian, i have been a believer since 1974. I don't feel we as believers in Christ ought to crumble under the agenda of those bent on destroying our constitution of the US. This political correctness gets to the point of stupidity when we bleep the Bible. Some in Ohio say we shouldn't say hello because it has hell in it. I heard it was said Jesus' name should be illegal to say in public because it is a dangerous name to use, that was Canada. Yes His name is dangerous to devils because we cast out devils in His name. Oh, a d since when is a natural act of going to the bathroom a curse word. Americans like to put a punch behind words so we have some that we have been told are "bad words". Are they different if we use poop, dung, feces, or any other ones describing the same act. Oh and my Webster encyclopedia has only 1 definition for "crap" it says crap is "buckwheat". So when did buckwheat become a bad word? Makes one think. Were parents trying to make us "proper" or were they a little ignorant because of schools?

    This is a bit weird , in most languages an ass is a type of donkey , only in North America is it something else . In my Bible the word pisseth occurs a few times . We take turns in our Bible class , to read out verses from the chapter we are studying . So there are a few words that we have to read out that might make someone blush , but not us . We are all adults .

    I caught my 9yr old son (at the time) saying the S word with his friends. I told him that if the word is not in the Bible, then he's in trouble. He found out "dung" is in the Bible. He tried it out but his friends thought he was weird. They stopped swearing around my house.

    Hello Richard,

    Curious as to who "you" is. In this forum, KJV bible, it uses the word "ass." To whom is your comment directed?

    I understand your point of adding to or taking away from.

    Hope that you have a blessed day today!

    Ty
