It's really interesting how all of the swear-words you mention are communion-related and how in France's French you'd be hard pressed to find any swearing other than somthing-Dieu that is religious in nature.
It's really telling of how religion has been removed from French culture during the Revolution.
- AYBABTME 14y agoAll those swear are in violent reaction against the Catholic Church which was prominent at the beginning of the century. This is before, nowaday, people just use these words by habit and as a cultural identity. I'd say that a vast majority of young Quebecers are agressive atheist.
- carlob 14y agoWhile the French are secular to the point they don't even need to be aggressive about it. :)
