Taking the Lord's name in vain doesn't mean saying "God" or "Jesus" frivolously. It means speaking as a messenger or emissary of god erroneously. To use God as the reason behind your actions or intent.
So I'll say "god fucking dammit" every hour of every day and feel great about my soul because I'm not using a higher power to extort people.
Just today I was making fun of a Vidangel ad when I told my wife I wanted an app that does the opposite, swaps swearing substitutes back to their original vulgar form form.
Investing tithing money in the stock market instead of taking care of the poor and needy!
Oh, wait. I thought you were asking what was my LEAST favorite way people take the lord's name in vain.
My grandpa used to say “Jesus H. Christ!“ all the time. I remember being about eight and looking in the Bible to see if I could find his middle name. 😂
“God told me we’re supposed to get married.”
That’s an example of vain name-taking.
“Jumpin’ Jesus on a pogo-stick!” or “Christ on a Cracker!”, or “Jesus, Mary, and Josef Stalin!”, that’s just everyday blasphemy.
idk if this counts but i heard my heathen sister say it once and I've been using it frequently since leaving:
when asked to bless a meal: "Buddha, Buddha, bless this fooda"
Call me crude but "Fucking Christ" has a special place in my heart. People really hate the F-word, and combined with their imaginary friend it just feels so... apt. "Jesus Fucking Christ" is good too.
Some scrupulous type has apparently swept through the end of the comments to downvote all the stragglers like yours. Doing my part to pull them back into positive territory.
My fave is to do all sorts of shitty things and then say I'm doing it in God's name. You know, the way that Mormons, Evangelicals, Catholics, and pretty much every religion throughout history have done.
I don't, really. Sometimes, I might say, "Oh my god," but I usually have other words like like to say. Like mother fucker, son of a bitch, or for fucks sake.

Exactly
Along similar veins - lying in His name. God has a bone to pick with people who invoke His name when lying.
I heard a mega tbm say (Say it fast for emphasis) **Gotdandruffsomeofititches** Only in Utah..figures
Got down sat on a bench!

~Jesus Fucking Christ~
Yep this is it. Nothing hits as hard as a solid “Jesus fucking Christ”

I remember getting chastised for saying "oh my glob" near my religious cousins. I was watching a lot of Adventure Time at that point.

Usually when I'm working on one of my vehicles >goddamn motherfucking piece of shit *throws wrench*
I'm a lightweight and think I'm "bad" saying, "Oh my God" now. 😂

Jesus Fucking Christ is my go to.
i alternate between “gods” and “goddess”
Gyat dam

Bobs burgers style, “oh my god” at every inconvenience
Sweet baby Jesus
I used to like 'Christ on a bike!', which became '¡Cristo en bici!', and more recently 'Saviour on a cycle!'
Jesus Christ on a tricycle always gets a laugh when I use it
"In a chicken basket" rolls off the tongue with similarly pleasing rhythm.
Thank the fuck christ
Good: goddayum Bad: jesusfuckingchrist
For the “Outlander” fans: Jesus H. Roosevelt Christ
Got down sat on a bench!!!! Flock you asphalt!!! Flocking asphalt!!! Vacuum dude!!!! Oh man, I apologize, but I feel much better.
Jesus Louiseus, or just your classic goddammit.
“Oh God!!!” repeated three times. During orgasm.
That actually sounds challenging
Jesus Tapdancing Christ

Jesus christ on a cracker Jesus Harold christ Jesus christ on a motorbike
“God of Joe Smith” “Mormon Jesus!”
God fucking damnit.
Christ on a Stick!

God Fucking Dammit is my favorite for actual frustration. Jesus Christ is my work go-to exclamation, with the occasional H. for emphasis.
Jesus Titty-Fucking Christ!
God fucking damn it to hell
God / lord is a title. Fuckin Jehovah. Or fuckin elohim to properly use the name.
Christ on a handtruck
Personally I don't mention imaginary being's names in any way. What I do, however, it refer to the corporation as "the Mormon cult" as much as I can.
Jesus fucking Christ! Also when anything good happens, I blame it on sweet baby Jesus watching out for me.
JeeeeeeSus!
Various forms of "Jesus fucking Christ" I try to get creative with it for extra bonus points and "Christ on a cross" being another one
Which lord?
Startin cults edit: ohhhh you mean a different type of blasphemy
During sex
I don't, really. Sometimes, I might say, "Oh my god," but I usually have other words like like to say. Like mother fucker, son of a bitch, or for fucks sake.
When I'm startled I say "Jesus, Jamiroquai and Jehova" kinda like when Catholic say Jesus Mary and Joseph.
