None. It is not necessary. If i bang my toe and yell holy shit, i am not ordering anyone to defecate or exclaiming about the hollness of shit. I can say omg in the samw (lack of) spirit.

Why would you need to? Exclamations are for effect not testimony. It is part of out collective culture and can be very effective to get our meaning across.

Screaming out Oh God during sex.

"Bless you" to someone who sneezes.

There are probably a lot but for the record, I didn't start saying "Oh, my god" until I stopped believing in god.

I don't see the correlation. I'm pretty de-godded and I use religious terms all the time and have no intention of stopping.

Goddammit my favorite, or jesus fuking christ....i don't give it much thought. Usually in reference of something distasteful, like a damn weed i missed 3 times with my hoe strikes...lol

I am fully Atheist, but I still often say "Jesus Christ!" or "God Damn It!". To me, they are nothing more than expletives.

I found it impossible to de-god when raising my daughter because so many movie/book/social concepts are referenced to it. I often had to pause a non-religious movie or show to explain what a Judas was, what 30 pieces of silver referred to, etc. I find it somewhat ironic that, as a life-long atheist, she often uses the expression "Jesus" to reflect disdain.

Can't do it and don't wanna do it. Whenever I'm surprised or pissed the first thing to come out of my mouth is usually "Good Lord".

"Jesus H. Friggin' Christ on a Pixie Stick."

Going to hell in a hand basket.

Or road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Stairway to heaven

Highway to hell

None. That would be as ridiculous as feeling guilty if you say "oh god" when you're cumming.

I see no need to do away with such fun phrases.

I never used them when I was Xian (something about taking the lord's name in vain,) and I rather enjoy them, now that I'm free to do so.

Jesus Tap Dancing Christ!

Heaven help us

God bless you when someone sneezes

No point in doing so. Expressions with religious origins are part of the culture. I can say "god damn it" while remaining an atheist.

I see no point in restricting my language just because it has ‘god’ in it. Sometimes these idioms communicate my thoughts better than anything else. I’ll keep them thanks.

Can I still say "HOLY SHIT"?

Would "Oh my Thor"! be acceptable? Just saying "god" could mean any of the thousands of gods.

I use less-conventional forms when I speak.
Gods forbid.
Thank Goddess.

It fills the need for the expression but anyone who is paying attention gets the signal that I'm not in the christian mainsteam.

These phrases are part of our shared culture that goes back hundreds of years. To "fully de-god" one's life, one would also have to give up literary references like "a drop in the bucket", "a house divided", "a labor of love", "all things must pass", "to all things a season", "by the skin of my teeth", "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush", "a fly in the ointment", "a two-edged sword", "a wolf in sheep's clothing".... all from the KJV.

I argue that the language would be a great deal poorer without these phrases, regardless of the source. Using the phrases or words doesn't mean we believe in the mythology the book sells.
