Okay, I'd agree with not using most of George Carlin's "seven dirty words" in
the list (and in subject lines) but you seem to be implying that "Christ" is a
swear, and one significant enough to take notice of? Who but the EXTREMELY
religious would even pause to concider that? If the bar is set that low, does
that mean no "heck", no "darn", no "crap", no "dagnabbit"? Will Christian Anger
be banned from the list because of his offensive name? Christ, that would suck!
(Note that I didn't say "that would suck Christ", or "Chirst would suck that",
which I agree would be quite offensive to some who believe that sucking anything
would lie outside the character of Christ).
