All of which has absolutely no bearing on the prodigious amount of free Christian Fiction out there. I happen to think it's fantastic for Christians and non-Christians alike. I've read several Christian works that could have just as easily been released by a traditional publisher and no one would have known the difference.

There are a lot of possibilities between "shucky-darns" and the f-bombs or worse. And then there's also the option to say the character swore, without detailing exactly what the character said in loving detail.
I get so tired of coarse language. It's desensitizing. And it's boring.
