Default Atheists and phrases

Is it weird for an atheist to say things like goddamn, Jesus Christ!, and other "holy" phrases?

Its hardly weird. Especialy since it could be considered as taking the lords name in vain.

I sometimes say it by mistake, its not like im about to battle beliefs with someone when im pissed off at them.

I saw someone on totse say "Holy Binary!"

instead of "Holy Shit!" cause he was an atheist.

I say it out of habit. There's no blasphemous intent behind it or anything...being as I don't believe a God exists, I don't really see a point in cursing out blasphemes towards nothing...it's down to habit.

No, most come from families that are Christian, or that use those terms alot anyway. It's ingrained from an early age.

Maybe that is 'shorthand' for "Thank God that I'm allowed by Him (temporarily) to think that He does not exist".

"Thanks to nothing, for letting me believe in no eternal thing." would be an insanity plea.

"Thanks to buddha" has about as much weight as "Thanks to John Doe".

Even "thank my "lucky stars" makes more sense for an athiest to say than "thanks to God".

God commanded it. Directed at everyone. The people that have knowledge of it, will be held more accountable than one that has never heard of the command.

xtreem, it's funny because it's self contradicting.

It's kind of like "Can you imagine a world without hypothetical questions?".

When someone says "Jesus H. Christ!" what does the "H" stand for? Is that his middle name? Herbert perhaps?
