I hear the expression everywhere these days; "OH MY GOD". Who or what is your god? To whom or what do you think this term is referring?
-------------------- You are a fortunate person indeed, if you can begin each day accepting the fact that during that day there will be ups and downs, good breaks and bad ones, disappointments, surprises, and unexpected turns of events. When you have solved all the mysteries of life you long for death, for it is but another mystery of life.

I'm a fan of using the lord's name in vain. 'Jesus' is my favourite swear word. That, or 'fucking Christ.' I also say like a whole lot. Like, even in my written word. Jesus. It's a bad habit.

It's funny isn't it?
It always cracks me up when virgin DMT smokers get their first good trip, and the nearly universal response of "OH MY GOD!" that ensues.

To me,
God = an omnipotent being that may or may not exist.

Yes, it is funny....!
Sex also seems to be a trigger for such a response.... Or sometimes when one is startled.... Or when one hears really bad news about someone else.....
The funny part is, it isn't really a taught reaction....

I think it's just a reaction that has been viewed enough to make in universal. It's a little selfish if you think about it, and kinda cool that everyone is admitting that we each have our own god.

My elders said a lot of things, but it was mostly four letter words.... By a "taught reaction", I meant it like - you didn't sit around in a circle training to say _____ every time someone scared the shit outa~ ya~.... I don't remember ever sitting around thinking to myself, "When I get startled, I am gonna~ say ____".... The same applies to all of the other things I mentioned....
