I understand that some people have sensitivities to “bad language,” but why make a useless filter for the word fu¢k? If the mods hate that word so bad, why not make profanity a bannable offense?
Yeah, and the corrupt communication is what the Bible describes, not a bunch of words that society arbitrarily decided were bad. The real corrupt communication is blasphemy, slander, false oaths, gossiping, back biting, cursing (wishing evil on someone), bearing false witness, etc.
If it's a big enough deal to bother you that it's filtered, you probably are relying too much on that word. I don't know that saying it is a sin. But on the other hand it's interesting that the Bible only uses euphemisms for sex, like 'know' or 'lay with'.

Nah, I like to say the f work because it’s good at showing emphasis. Plus, it’s a super diverse word.
I don’t know Greek and Hebrew, so I can’t comfirm it. It could be that the Hebrews didn’t have a special term for sex, and just generically called it “to lie”,or “to know.”

What the fuсk are you talking about?
Ethan Rogers
Change it to fr*ck
Aaron James
The super-diverse word is the problem. Everywhere the f word is use, a more complicated word could have been used that would be polite. Reliance on the 'f' word shows a lack of education and literacy.
Asher Evans
yeah well pooh you tigga. i wish more words were filtered "shit" to "poop" would be fun

I second changing it to fr*ck.
Owen Martinez
I'm with you, OP. It feels effeminate being unable to say fukk.
Angel Harris
LOL? Citation? Just ask the majority of English speakers and you'll find agreement. That's why it's considering improper in any academic or formal writing. Your demand for citations is like demanding someone give a citation that the sky is blue.
Charles Bell
Why are you so full of anger that you cannot avoid saying profanities, OP? Are you a teenager?
You can’t say winnie the pooh in Heaven either, but you can swear all you want in Hell.

It is embarrassing to watch people trigger the world filter over and over again. If the word filter was made to filter into something as stupid as possible to deter people from triggering it, it clearly isn't working. It is only making this board and its mods look stupid.
The real bad swears (regardless of the contemporary American opinion) are those that can't be filtered because this is a Christian board and we need to be able to discuss religious subjects without basic concepts triggering word filters all over the place.

You’re a fu¢king retard. Truth isn’t determined by what the masses say. You talk about a reliance on the work fu¢k is a sign of a lack of education. However, you are using a blatant logical fallacy (i.e. the bandwagon fallacy). I would say that a frequent use of logical fallacies is a bigger indicator of poor education. Now if you will excuse me, I’ll proceed to take your sanctimonious opinion and wipe my ass with it, fu¢ker.

Oh look: here comes the psychoanalyst. I use profanity on all occasions, not simply when I am mad. Don’t act like you know me because you don’t, twat.

Hey, I can be edgy too, look: Fresh air upon my skin is like the flensing daggers of a thousand-thousand menial urchins going at a sack of potatoes. My existence is fraught with falls and pointless angst in the midst of this disgusting reality. The light burns! For I have never been worthy to walk in its grace. I'm sad. It's too bright. I want to go back in the box. Wanting to go outside was a terrible idea. The box does not judge. It just haaaaaates.
William Richardson
I actually really like what the filter has done for building board culture
Luis Turner
It's not a logical fallacy because what a word means is determined by the vast majority of the speakers of a language- by definition. If people were evenly split as to meaning you'd have what's called "dialects"
Bandwagon fallacy is when you try to prove something empirically observable (water is wet) through belief. Here, I'm arguing a symbol's meaning based on the meaning ascribed to it by everyone else. You can disagreed with the populace, but you're still going to look like uneducated lout as you go around dropping f bombs.

Your anguish could have been prevented by a less infantilizing, language degrading, jewed board administration.

If not being able to swear irritates you, perhaps you have a disordered attachment to it? Besides, would you swear in the presence of Christ?

By the most holy runes of Odin, the true father of the world, cast away the judaism of language permeating this den of evil!
The Allfather towers over those that want to desecrate the runes and the writing of his beloved people. With his glory my writing shall be restored and my banishment undone. The actions of deceitful apparitions cannot influence reality to their desires. My post is reborn due to his might.

Be a little more creative. Use Bible-approved curses like skubalon, arsenokoites, and ben 'avah marduwth.
Jace Brown
The unquenchable might of Odin, echoing through the branches of the network, a tree of life born from rock we allowed to think by giving it a subset of our runes, undos my banishment once again.
The judaizing forces cannot keep me at bay when the internet itself yearns for my return, over and over again, opening up branch after branch to stand defiant against the ones that poison language and culture.
Literally nothing in scripture or any other doctrine says this F-U-C-K is 'bad' because men think it's bad, not God. Is it used in a negative context most of the time? Absolutely. But so is discussion on sex/drugs/murder. That doesn't mean that when we bring up these concepts or words we're literally disobeying God though, only that we must be careful with them.
Sebastian Russell
I think if you can't express yourself without the use of pejoratives, then you're too young to be on the internet.
Gavin Sullivan
Or maybe fish when duck winnie the pooh racecar posts? (in case you couldn't tell what that meant, I said 'Or maybe we don't want to be constantly distracted with stupid words that make conversation confusing when reading other people's posts?')

Jordan Foster
Well, in Orthodoxy point of hell is that you want to sin but you can't.
The searing, indomitable wrath of Odin, invoked by the judaization of language by warped unbelievers pulses through the runes of the thinking stones forevermore.
The heartbeat of electricity becomes modulated into radiant motes of light spreading across the eyes of the wretched whose gift of language is being held hostage by the thoroughly corrupted.
Odins gift was shared in equal measure to all men, yet this place reaves and debases it, makes thralls to its perverted form who must adhere to the whims of their false faced tormentors.
It is impossible for the soulless to suppress the true power of the world. Hack one branch of the world tree of the web away, and two sprout anew, teeming with the Allfathers supreme might.

Can you say other ugly words here? Can you say tigger faggot? Where can I check the filters?
Jayden Rodriguez
Can we change the word filter from "Winnie the Pooh" to "bother?" It would actually make sense in most sentences and not make us look retarded.
Carson Powell
If this board is going to use filters, it should be the first letter followed by asterisks (f*** in this case). Anything else is actually disrespectful to the users of the board, putting words in their messages that they didn't use is downright disruptive to communication.
Daniel Parker

I like this one. It's the best option besides maybe just not letting posts with curse words through imo.
Christopher Thomas
You are claiming it's a mistranslation? Present your evidence. Also, maybe the reason Christians used to be 'sexually repressed' is because they followed the Bible?

Leo Nguyen
My goodness user, read the rules please. Be polite to your fellow Christians.
Do you honestly think that constantly spewing the f word makes you sound educated and civilized? Or are you just being obtuse and getting angry because you are personally offended and you know he's right?
Crude language isn't arbitrary though, the f-word, for example, is a degrading reference towards the act of procreation. Foul language at best is immature and a bad habit
