<< My intention was to convey it did not bother their conscience. >>

I knew what you meant. You didn't have to punctuate because the idea that you were trying to get across was clear.

I just didn't make my little "attempted" joke clear.

There are so many different types of cultures and religions with so many different types of sins. But, I am puzzled by the Christian view that an all powerful and knowing God would not know that murder or rape was worse than cursing.

And yet, some of these same Christians would stand outside an abortion clinic and curse the abortion doctors. If cursing and abortion are viewed the same by the Christian God, why would Christians intentionally disobey God by committing one or more sins to stop the small insignificant, perceived sin of abortion?
