@surn_thing - the Name in Vain thing isn't using his name to swear - it's disrespectful but not illegal

it's about taking an oath in god's name, then not following through

it's about lying while swearing under an oath to god's name

now in Hebrew, the original text, there's a lot of ambiguity - many modern scholars translate it as "vain swearing" - one of the problems of reading the Bible is that it's so very old, and we don't have a that point of view that the people who wrote it did

there are words and cultural concepts we just don't understand - getting your history from the Bible is like trying to write Japanese history from some Dragonball Z comics, a T.V. guide, and the poems of Basho

most modern American readings of the Bible come from reading it as a White American without taking those cultural differences into account

your quote is funny, but it's based on a an interpretation of the Bible that even professional scholars are unsure of the translation of

Okay Karen, do you break into people's house while they're shagging and shout at the about "BLASPHEMY AGAINST THE HOOOOOOLY SPIRIT"?

@Spartan_873, Thank you for asking.

It's one of the 10 commandments
"Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain." - Exodus 20:7

Using the Lord's name in vain means using it as a common word instead of giving proper reverence. In this case - using it as an interjection. By being careful not to do this and limiting exposure to instances of using the Lord's name in vain is one way to maintain proper respect for God.

Makes sense?

Why would anybody be this upset by such a minor detail? Surely there is better things to worry about? I'm not trying to offend I am genuinely curious why it's this big of a deal.

Sensitive.

Thanks

Alternatively you could use that as an incentive to learn to mod yourself. Changing a description would be a great first project. I'll give you this to help you along:

[
{
"op":"replace",
"path":"/description",
"value":"AVATAR REFERENCE HERE"
}
]

Hey, could you help me out with something? I'm trying to make a mod to change the cactus juice's description because i'm an Avatar fan who can't stand seeing a missed opportunity. If you could send me the files to do that, i would greatly appreciate it.

This is a cool mod bro. I've gone into game files on some games when a detail like that bothers my conscience.

thank you for doing this!!! I'm lds so it really grinds my gears when these sorta things pop up.
