Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. And whoever says a word against the Son of man will be forgiven; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come (Matt. 12:31-2 RSV).
Blasphemy requires repentance but it can be forgiven UNLESS it is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.
If it is true that Jesus doesn’t want us swearing, I’ll try and quit it. If it’s the case that it merely bothers some people, I’ll probably not stop.
Yes, that is my mindset on the matter, as well. I don't suspect you're being facetious or arguing in bad faith.
