Description: Swearing around members of a congregation? "Parish" the thought. But could profanity sometimes have a place on the pulpit? Rev. Dr. Allan Rudy-Froese of the Anabaptist Mennonite Biblical Seminary believes swear words can sometimes be the most honest words. Daniel Benson, a minister in the United Church of Canada, says swear words can express moments when other words won't do it. Two spiritual leaders discuss swearing and the role it plays in society and in the authenticity of their ministry. Plus, Olly Robertson, a researcher at Oxford who specializes in swearing, weighs in on the science of swearing.
