(1:05) Various clips from George Carlin's comedy career with the last one being a quote from him in an interviewing on how he wanted to spend life in his '90's.
(:17) George Carlin says he would have said the 7 dirty words even if there were children in the audience.
413-423Is "Oh, my God!" taking the Lord's name in vain (Ex 20:7)?
428-437What are the distinctions between these words?
Cursing?  To ask for something bad to happen to someone.
Cussing?  Dirty language, like Carlin's 7 words.
Swearing?  To strengthen a formal promise by asking an authority to do something if you fail to fulfill your promise.
Taking the Lord's name in vain?  To reduce the Creator to a created thing, to demean His Holiness, to dishonor His Divinity.  "Oh God, help me when the lottery!"  "God judged the children through the molester."  "God is a Dodger fan."  To believe something bad about God.
