Obscene language exists in many languages and cultures. It is from such words that the mat consists. This is a relatively small and closed group of words and expressions, the use of which is taboo in the cultural community. This group includes the names of the human body, primarily the genitals (the so-called vocabulary of the "bodily bottom"), physiological functions, sexual intercourse, as well as words derived from them. This also includes some offensive lexemes like a word, in its main meaning serving as the name of a dissolute woman, but more often used nevertheless in an interjectional function - when expressing the whole gamut of human emotions: anger, indignation, amazement and even delight.
The mystical roots of this phenomenon go back to distant pagan antiquity. People of the pre-Christian era, in order to protect their lives from the evil attacks of the demonic world, came into contact with him. This contact could only be twofold: the demon was either gratified by praising him and offering sacrifices to him, or he was frightened. So, they frightened the demon precisely with bad abuse, a demonstration of their indecency. But they called the demon with the same words, demonstrating their obsession, their readiness to unite with him. Bad words were included in spells addressed to pagan deities, and in pagan times a fertility cult was widespread, so all bad words are associated with the sexual sphere. Thus, the so-called mate is the language of communication with demons. It is no coincidence that in philology this phenomenon is called infernal vocabulary. Infernal means hellish, from the underworld.
But how does mate affect a person? This has recently been the concern of many scientists and researchers.
At the Institute of Control Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Candidate of Biological Sciences Petr Petrovich Goryaev (the author of the new science "wave genetics") and Candidate of Technical Sciences Georgy Georgievich Tertyshny are working on this problem. Researchers have invented a machine that translates human words into electromagnetic vibrations. And they are known to affect DNA molecules. Scientists have found that when a person swears, his chromosomes are twisted and bent, genes change places. As a result, DNA begins to develop unnatural programs. And so the program of self-destruction is gradually passed on to offspring. Scientists have recorded that swear words cause a mutagenic effect similar to that which gives radioactive exposure with a power of thousands of roentgens.
An experiment with irradiation has been carried out for many years on the seeds of the Arabidopsis plant. Almost all of them died, and those that survived became genetic freaks. These monsters, having suffered many diseases, passed them on by inheritance, and after several generations they degenerated. Interestingly, the mutagenic effect did not depend on the strength of the word, they could not be pronounced either loudly or in a whisper. On this basis, scientists concluded that certain words have an informational effect on DNA.
The reverse experiment was also carried out: scientists "blessed" the seeds killed by radiation exposure to ten thousand roentgens, then the confused genes, broken chromosomes and DNA helices fell into place and grew together, the dead seeds came to life.
Orthodox view.
From an Orthodox point of view, foul language is a sin. He was condemned at the Council of Carthage (prav. 71): "With obscene words they offend the honor of the mothers of families and the chastity of others." The one who uses foul language, first of all, dishonors the honor of mothers, impudently scolds the God-established laws of birth, forgetting that he himself was born and raised by his mother. In the Russian people, swearers have long been called blasphemers.
The habit of foul language forms the moral character of a person, hinders his familiarization with culture, and makes him unreliable in relationships with others. The habit of foul language is a sign of the spiritual and moral decay of a person. Rotten speech corrupts a person: he not only gives his soul to the power of demons, but also affects the state of the soul of the people around him, he spares neither the modesty of women, nor the purity of children. “By your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” (Matthew 12:36-37).

bad word
They wrote a bad word on the fence.
People walk by and laugh. Those who still have a conscience turn away. Well, at least the children do not yet understand everything ...
The fence became embarrassing.
He raised his eyes to Heaven and prayed:
- Burn me better than endure this ... Ashamed, after all, in front of people!
The sky darkened. A severe storm cloud has sailed. A terrible lightning flashed. And the terrible rain began.
And when a thunderstorm passed, everyone saw that the fence, as it stood, is still standing. Only everything is clean. The downpour itself washed away the bad word. And lightning struck the house of the man who wrote it. Well, he miraculously survived.
But - not until the next thunderstorm?
Vicious circle
People said to a man accustomed to swearing:
— Fear God, do not offend His Most Pure Mother! Is it that far from disaster?
Only where there!
He also made excuses:
- So I swear because of these troubles!
And he could not understand in any way where all those reasons come from in his life, after which he again and again has to swear ...
Little parables for children and adults. Volume 1. Monk Barnabas (Sanin)
The Apostle Paul wrote about the "rotten word". In the 4th century, St. John Chrysostom said: “When someone swears with obscene words, then at the Throne of the Lord, the Mother of God, she takes away the prayer cover given by Her from a person and Sheself retreats, and which a person is obscenely elected, subjects himself to a curse on that day, because he scolds his mother and insults her bitterly. It is not befitting for us to eat and drink with that person, otherwise he will not lag behind ongoing swear words.
Bishop Varnava (Belyaev) writes that shameful talk is “a purely pagan heritage. It is entirely rooted in the phallic cults of the Ancient East, starting from the depths of Satan (see: Rev. 2, 24) and the dark abyss of debauchery in honor of Baal, Astarte and others, and ending with the classical heirs of Ham. The cults of ancient Babylon, the land of Canaan, which practiced the sacrifice of babies, the service of debauchery, fornication, ritual prostitution, and gave the appropriate terminology of ritual spells that formed the basis of swearing.
By uttering obscene words, a person (even if unwittingly) calls upon demonic forces and participates in a savage cult. It is known that the peoples inhabiting Canaan were conquered by the Jews and mercilessly exterminated at the command of God. And this is not at all inexplicable cruelty, but the righteous wrath of God, the punishment for monstrous corruption and the worship of sin.
One of the widespread myths is the assertion that the Mongols and Tatars brought swearing to Russia. It is ridiculous to believe that the pure, highly moral Krivichi and Rodimichi used to live, who did not know foul language, and then the spoiled Mongols came and taught them obscene vocabulary. No, the roots of foul language are pagan spells, and they were in Russia even before the Mongols. The Eastern Slavs, like other peoples, in pagan times had a cult of fertility, a belief in the mystical marriage of earth and sky. At Russian pagan weddings, the so-called reproachful songs were sung, which contained ritual insults to the groom (so that the chosen one would not have to reproach him in family life). With the help of swearing, the pagan Slav also scared away evil spirits, thinking that demons were afraid of matyugs.
Already after the Baptism of Russia, foul language was severely punished. In the decree of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich of 1648, the inadmissibility of foul language in wedding ceremonies is emphasized: so that “demonic songs should not be sung at marriages and no
shameful words were not spoken. There is also mention of holy profanity:
“And on the eve of the Nativity of Christ and Basil’s Day and Theophany ... so that they don’t sing demonic songs, swear words and all kinds of indecent barking are not scolded.” It was believed that a swear word offended, firstly, the Mother of God, secondly, the mother of a person and, finally, mother earth.
There was an idea that swearing was punished by natural disasters, misfortunes and diseases. Even under Tsars Mikhail Fedorovich and Alexei Mikhailovich, foul language was punished with rods on the streets. We are responsible for every idle word, especially the bad one. Nothing passes without a trace, and by insulting the mother of another person, sending curses to him, we thereby bring trouble on ourselves. Let us recall the words of St. John Chrysostom: "Whoever is chosen obscenely, exposes himself to a curse on that day."
For shaming, God allows various troubles, misfortunes and illnesses to fall upon a person. In medicine, there is a kind of mental illness (though poorly understood) when a person, perhaps even far from dirty swearing, suffers from inexplicable seizures. The patient suddenly begins, against his will, to spew out streams of foul language, often very sophisticated. Sometimes blasphemes saints and God. For a believer, everything is obvious. In spiritual practice, this is called possession, or possession. The demon, who is possessed, forces him to utter terrible curses and blasphemy. It is known from practice that this kind of possession can happen, by God's permission, even with children.
Very often, people who are in spiritual darkness hear voices that utter a stream of obscene abuse and blasphemy. It is easy to guess who these voices belong to. Swearing has long been called the language of demons.
I will give an example of how the so-called "black word" works, that is, expressions with the mention of the devil. One person was very fond of using this word in place and out of place. And then he comes home somehow (and there was a table in the middle of his room) and sees that the one whom he so often commemorated is sitting under the table. The man, horrified, asks him: "Why did you come?" He replies: "After all, you yourself constantly call me." And disappeared. This is not some horror story, but a completely real story.
As a priest, I can cite many similar cases even from my small practice.
The devil, unfortunately, is not a horror movie character, but a real force that exists in the world. And a person who uses obscene, nasty, black words himself opens the doors of his soul to this force.
Priest Pavel Gumerov. Orthodox site. About the sin of foul language. 22/05/2008
The Savior says: What comes out of the mouth comes out of the heart - this defiles a person (Matthew 15:18). So, listen, lover of a rotten word, what does your love for him mean: the abomination, the impurity of your heart ... Can the blessing of God descend on the soul of one in whose heart the most impure thoughts and desires nest? .. Can God hear a person who says his prayer in a tongue repulsive of swear words? “He who speaks bad words,” said one church teacher, “is not worthy to enter the temple of God and touch the shrine; the Guardian Angel cries about such a person, while the devil rejoices; on such God sends various misfortunes and misfortunes.
ABC of spiritual life. Archpriest V. Mordasov
foul language
Foul language (with. 539)
Let's try to understand the psychological mechanisms of abuse, the motives that guide a person, flavoring his speech with this spicy spice. For, as Freud noted, not a single word is said just like that, but reflects our deepest inclinations and desires.
Freud has another observation on this subject. In his opinion, "the man who was the first to throw a swear word at his opponent instead of a stone laid the foundations of our civilization." That is, verbal insult, swearing is a symbolic replacement for physical aggression, which allows you to defuse the conflict in a bloodless form. And the path from brutal violence to a verbal showdown - this is the path of the progress of civilization (passed, alas, not to the end).
As an insult from time immemorial, all peoples have used a variety of expressions designed to belittle the dignity of the enemy (stupid, weak...), attribute to him shortcomings and vices (freak, scoundrel...), as well as wishes for him to become a victim of trouble, not least - a victim of violent, unwanted, unnatural sexual intercourse. The predominance of sexual motives in swearing in general indicates the extreme importance of this sphere for a person - sexual threats and accusations of abnormality (incest, perversion, inferiority) stung more than any other insult. The same Freud is often reproached for his increased attention to questions of sex. But what, however, does the emotional emphasis with which the verbal expressions of this topic testify?
The peculiarity of the current language situation is that traditionally offensive words and expressions in the modern language have almost lost their original meaning and are used in a wide range of meanings - both linguistic and emotional. They no longer swear, they talk obscenities. And if the offensive meaning of swearing is easy to understand, then its wider role in modern language requires explanation.
According to one version (which is quite consistent with Freud's ideas), swearing acts as a means of defusing emotional stress. For many people, the world around them is not very comfortable and the people who inhabit it are not very friendly. Trying to protect himself from the threatening imperfection of the world and possible aggression from his neighbors, a person responds, sometimes preventively, with counter aggression. This allows you to feel not a victim, but an actively defending side, and the very ability to fight back brings comfort. So, awkwardly hitting the finger with a hammer, we commemorate a woman of easy virtue, not because our thoughts at that moment are devoted to corrupt love, but solely in order to give an answer to the challenge of an unfriendly world. (Even academician D.S. Likhachev, the embodiment of intelligence, according to stories, admitted in private conversations that, faced with the imperfection of the world in the most banal form - for example, stumbling over a bump - he reacts to this with not the most delicate words.) Offensive words and expressions are traditionally considered undesirable, forbidden. But it is equally undesirable for us to attack our well-being. In our worldview, any encroachment on our good violates the correct order of things, and we accordingly respond to it by violating accepted norms.
The idea of swearing as an emotional release gave rise to appropriate practical recommendations, and by no means prohibitive, but vice versa. The British psychotherapist K. Wallace, as a result of many years of observation, came to the conclusion that well-mannered, delicate people who avoid foul language are more vulnerable to stress and, as a result, more often suffer from various psychosomatic disorders. Dr. Wallace advises: in order to avoid neuropsychic overstrain, retire daily (decency should still be observed!) And give free rein to your feelings in the most obscene expressions. At the same time, Wallace, however, points out that his advice is unlikely to be useful to those who already swear many times a day - the "psychotherapeutic" relaxation will add practically nothing to them.
So the advice of an English psychotherapist, albeit indisputable, is suitable for a few. For the rest, abuse has not been able to act as a medicine for a long time because of its routine and familiarity. And this is also caused by very specific psychological reasons. To understand them, let's try to understand why a person first utters forbidden words.
Most adults - at least those who have not yet completely sunk down - agree in one opinion: obscene words are "adult" vocabulary, and a child is not allowed to use them in any case. If a forbidden word flies out of children's mouths, a sharp negative reaction immediately follows: adults seek to stop and punish such licentiousness. But for a small child, such a reaction is not very clear. In the first years of life, a child - a being at first speechless - rapidly masters his native language. All words are new to him. And he actively, like a sponge, absorbs and assimilates them, enriching his vocabulary every day. The child listens to the speech of others, catches unfamiliar words, as if tasting them and trying to include them in his dictionary. Moreover, the baby hears not only those words that parents address him and that they exchange with each other, but also those that an untidy red-nosed uncle with an unsteady gait mutters on the street. A small child cannot yet understand why some words are worse than others. For him, they are all interesting and worthy of attention.
When a baby utters an obscene word for the first time, it, strange as it may seem, is completely innocent in his mouth. For him, this is another learned word, almost no different from all the others. “Almost” refers to the fact that the meaning of almost any word is clear to the child, but he is still not able to comprehend the meaning of the curse. He only vaguely feels that such words introduce a strong emotional accent into the speech.
Parental anger does not solve the problem, but only exacerbates it. In the mind of a child, an unprintable word acquires an even stronger emotional coloring. Unable to understand the reason for the strict prohibition, the baby may try to use the forbidden fruit as a symbol of his independence. “If someone can say that, then it means I can too. Just don't make your parents angry on purpose! And the forbidden word begins to flicker in his speech, becoming habitual from repeated use.
As you get older, the problem becomes more and more serious. Obscene language takes on the role of an important symbol of maturity and independence. A teenager quickly learns: if swearing is the vocabulary of elders, forbidden for a child, then you can join the coveted adult world by breaking this taboo. What’s more, it’s an easy job! It will take many more years to prove their personal autonomy and solvency by deeds. But you can drag on a cigarette, famously spit on the floor or swear dirty at least this minute!
Isn't the problem that for so many adults the task of personal self-determination has remained unresolved and they have to assert themselves in an infantile teenage way? However, another may well take place as a person, achieve a lot in life, however, from a young age, the acquired habit has already entered the bloodstream, and it is impossible to refuse it. So, having started smoking in adolescence, many then would like to quit, but they can no longer.
It is also important that foul language has become generally accepted and to abandon it in many cases means to oppose oneself to the circle to which one would like or have to belong. Another teenager begins to swear in the circle of comrades, so as not to simply turn out to be a black sheep, not to be branded as a “nerd” and a sissy. And with age, this problem only gets worse - the circle of cultured people who avoid foul language is now so narrow that they mostly have to rotate outside of it.
In addition, one should not exaggerate the intellectual level of the average layman, for whom it is a big problem to clearly express one's thoughts (if any). For such people, the “rotten word” does not even appear as such, but is a kind of interjection that fills the inevitable voids in wretched speech. Due to the poor vocabulary, it is difficult to find suitable expressions. Then the words “jokers” come to the rescue - they can easily replace almost any word of the native language and cause a more or less adequate association in the interlocutor. And if this trend intensifies on a mass scale, a person will gradually slide down to the intellectual level of a caveman who speaks in ten universal speech symbols.
Is it possible to overcome this trend, somehow get out of the language crisis? The solution to this problem is too complex and requires many steps in different directions. But one of them - perhaps the most important - is seen as a convincing positive example to demonstrate to the people, and above all to the youth, that worthy people are above foul language.
Moreover, any thought or emotion can be expressed much more strongly and bitingly in a delicate form. As, for example, in an anecdotal letter from one businessman to his unscrupulous partner:
Dear Sir! Because my secretary - lady, I hesitate to dictate to her the words you deserve. Moreover, since I myself - gentleman, it is not proper for me to even know these words. But since you are neither, you will understand what I mean..

Wikipedia.
Obviously, swear words - words of ridicule - are part of the martial art, necessary in the event of a sharp confrontation. The master of battle is able to verbally win the conflict, without bringing it to a fight and bloodshed. Initially, the swear words did not contain references to sexual relations. Scolding - fight, battle. In battles, children die, not are born.
Mat was not a scolding. The love of the body was holy, and it was not put on public display. It was considered immoral. And they performed it as a sacrament, as a prayer. And there was no vice (flaw) in such Love.
Today, "mat", "swearing" is the common name for a section of taboo vocabulary related to sexual relations. And it is no coincidence that it is associated with the word "Mother" that is holy to all.
None of the definitions of filth, swearing and scolding given by Wikipedia, in my opinion, fits the mat. Sexual relations are given to us by God, and they are not bad. In fact, swear words are not filthy, but Holy. And therefore should not be used in vain ... We are commanded to "be fruitful and multiply." The fact that the Latin word "phallus" is censored today, and the ancient Slavic word "x * y", which meant "sprout", "shoot" (the words "needles", "tail" and others came from the same root) - by the majority people is recognized as indecent, abusive - just a cultural aberration.
Everyone has their own understanding of evil. Foul language can also have an impeccable literary form. Filth is not in words, but inside a person.

There is an opinion in the world community that it is impossible to imagine a Russian person without a mat. Swearing in our country people belonging to almost all social strata. You can often hear from TV screens, on the radio, and even in kindergarten from a very young child. Most of us treat profanity quite normally, considering it just a means of expressing our emotions. However, in fact, foul language carries a serious destructive force, which, according to scientists, can lead to the degeneration of an entire nation. Moreover, this process is quite difficult to stop, because it goes unnoticed, covering an ever larger circle of the Russian-speaking population of the planet. Today we will try to explain to readers why it is impossible to swear under any life circumstances.
Before trying to understand why you can't swear in principle, you need to find out what falls under the category of "checkmate". If you carefully read the definition of this word in different dictionaries, it becomes clear that obscenity is one of the most rude and ancient forms of profanity in Russia and in related languages.
Based on this definition, we can conclude that swear words were actively used by our ancestors. Most likely, you are now thinking that since great-grandfathers and great-great-grandfathers sometimes allowed themselves to swear with a strong word, then there is nothing wrong with that. But do not rush to conclusions. Perhaps in ancient times with profanity, everything was not so simple.
The history of the mat
Many people are so used to swearing in their everyday speech that they don’t even think about why it’s impossible to swear and where these words came from. However, scientists have been interested in profanity for a very long time, and they have been studying this issue for decades.
Initially, there was a widespread opinion that the mat came to the Slavs from the Mongols and Turkic tribes. But a more thorough analysis of these languages showed that there was nothing resembling swearing in them. Therefore, it is worth looking for the roots of foul language in more ancient times.
Ethnopsychologists were very surprised by the similarity of the Russian obscenity with the spells of the ancient Sumerians. Many words were almost identical, which led scientists to think about the sacred meaning of profanity. And as it turns out, they were on the right track. After much research, it was revealed that swearing is nothing more than an appeal to pagan spirits, demons and demons. It was widely used in pagan cults and rituals, but even then only special people who used their power to achieve certain goals could swear. Still do not understand why you can not swear? Then you should read the article to the end.
Many of the words that we use today several hundred times a day are the names of ancient demons, while others are a terrible curse sent in ancient times only on the heads of enemies. That is, using the mat every day, we consciously turn to the dark forces and call on them for help. And they are always happy to provide it, and then present an invoice for payment, which can be overwhelming for many.
It is noteworthy that even our ancestors were clearly aware of the harm of swear words. They didn't need to be told why they couldn't swear. An ordinary person could use profanity no more than ten times a year and only in the most exceptional cases. At the same time, everyone understood that retribution for this weakness would be inevitable.
Of course, many of our explanation will seem like a fairy tale. After all, modern man believes only in facts and figures. But well, we are ready to consider this issue from the point of view of science.
Scientific experiments with profanity
Even in Soviet times, scientists became interested in how the word affects living organisms. Since childhood, we know a lot of folk proverbs and sayings on this subject. For example, “a kind word is also pleasant for a cat” or “a word is not swollen, but people die from it.” This should teach us to be careful about what comes out of our mouths. However, most people take their speech extremely lightly. And, according to scientists, very in vain.
The research institutes of our country have been testing the hypothesis for several years about how much a word can affect the psychophysical state of a living organism. Experiments were carried out on seeds intended for planting. Three experimental groups were created. The first one was exposed to the most selective swearing for several hours a day, the second "listened" to the usual abuse, and the third was slandered only with thanksgiving words and prayers. To the surprise of the scientists, the seeds that were hit with the mat showed a germination rate of only forty-nine percent. In the second group, the figures were higher - fifty-three percent. But the seeds from the third group sprouted ninety-six percent!
No wonder our ancestors knew that in no case should one approach cooking and planting with foul language. In this case, you should not even expect a good result. But how exactly does checkmate work? This process was maximally revealed by the Russian geneticist Pyotr Goryaev.
The impact of profanity on the human body
We think many of us have read the Bible and remember that "in the beginning was the Word." But most people did not even think about what exactly is contained in this important line. But Peter Goryaev managed to reveal this secret.
After many years of research that he conducted in Russian and foreign scientific institutions, it was proved that our DNA chain can be represented as a meaningful text, consisting of words grouped with a special meaning. The scientist himself called this phenomenon "the speech of the Creator." Thus, Goryaev confirmed that with our speech we can both heal ourselves and destroy ourselves. He claims that thought forms, and especially spoken words, are perceived by the genetic apparatus through special electromagnetic channels. Therefore, they can heal and support us, and in other cases literally blow up DNA, causing certain disorders and mutations. And checkmate is the most destructive force of all. Petr Goryaev believes that a frivolous attitude to profanity leads not only to cultural, but also to the physical degeneration of the nation.
Surprisingly, doctors partly confirm Goryaev's hypothesis. They have long noticed that patients with a stroke or patients after severe traumatic brain injuries who lose the ability to speak can quite freely pronounce long sentences consisting entirely of swear words. And this means that at this moment in the body the signals pass through completely different nerve chains and endings.
The opinion of the clergy
Why can't you swear? In Orthodoxy, there has always been a consensus on this matter. Any church-going person can explain that profanity is, first of all, a sin that is not pleasing to God. With swear words, we amuse the unclean and call on the help of demons. And they do not miss the opportunity to lead a person into an even more difficult and difficult situation. Thus, we move further and further away from the Lord and cannot fully open our hearts to him.
In addition, many swear words are a real and terrible insult to the Mother of God and the entire female gender as a whole. That's why girls shouldn't swear in any case. As future mothers, they should carry only a bright program in themselves, and not be “stained” with curses and blasphemous words. And this includes the whole mat and any swearing speech.
Priests are always trying to convey that the word is God's special gift to man. With it, he connects himself with the space surrounding him with invisible threads, and it depends only on the personality itself what exactly will happen to it. Often even believing people allow foul language, and then they are surprised that troubles, misfortunes, poverty and illness come to their house. The Church sees this as a direct relationship and advises to carefully control one's speech even in moments of intense anger.
The impact of the mat on expectant mothers
Scientists argue that foul language has the ability to spoil the health and condition of a person not only in a momentary situation, but also completely change his genetic program, laid down by nature. Swearing seems to knock out certain links from DNA or completely change them. Any spoken word represents a certain wave genetic program, which in most cases does not have retroactive effect. Therefore, women in position should especially carefully monitor not only their own speech, but also the society in which they are located. After all, the influence of the mat extends not only to those who use foul language themselves, but also to the category that can be called "passive listeners." Even one person in a company using profanity can bring great harm to everyone present.
If you still do not understand why pregnant women should not swear, then you should refer to the latest research by scientists. They became interested in the data that in some countries cerebral palsy and Down's disease are extremely rare, while in others it is regularly included in the statistics of newborn diseases. It turned out that in countries where there is no such thing as "swearing", congenital childhood diseases are much less than where foul language is the natural everyday speech of almost every person.
Children and mat
Many adults do not consider it necessary to think about why it is impossible to swear in front of children. They believe that kids still don’t remember or understand anything, which means they won’t perceive profanity as something harmful. But this position is fundamentally wrong.
Mat is very dangerous for children of any age. First of all, he is a conductor of violence in the life of a child. Foul language most often becomes a companion of fights and any kind of aggression. Therefore, children very quickly become saturated with this energy and begin to actively transmit it to the outside world, surprising their sometimes quite prosperous parents with their behavior.
Secondly, dependence is almost instantly developed from swear words. Psychologists quite often draw a parallel between it and alcohol or nicotine addiction. A child who uses profanity from a very early age will be able to get rid of this habit with great difficulty. The process will require incredible efforts from him.
Thirdly, foul language reduces the chances of your child to be able to find happiness in the future and become a happy parent of a healthy baby yourself. Therefore, try to convey to the children as clearly as possible why it is impossible to swear.
An interesting fact about profanity
Many are interested in why it is impossible to swear in prison. This rule has several explanations. The first is the fact that many swear words contain understandable insults. And they are interpreted literally. Therefore, a couple of such words can be perceived as a deadly insult, it is quite possible to pay for it with your life.
In addition, in places of detention there is a language - Fenya. It carries quite a lot of negative energy and psychologists consider its effect on the body to be much more powerful than mat.
Instead of a conclusion
We hope that our article was at least a little useful to you. And now you will choose your words carefully in your daily life. After all, if every person begins to follow the speech and exclude foul language from it, then society as a whole will turn its back on swearing. And at the same time - from the evil that she carries in herself.
And yet, the language is something unbelievable .. It really is an abyss!
Not only does everything come from the language ("Again about the language. Part 3").
Not only that, all the laws of Genesis are concentrated in the language, for "In the beginning was the word ..".
Not only that, the language is a direct reflection of all the processes that take place in the carrier society. And not only political, economic processes, which are certainly associated with the appearance in the language of new words, concepts, and borrowings, if there is a need to somehow designate a new concept or phenomenon, in the absence of equivalents in their own language.
And “just like that” nothing happens in the language, as a tribute to fashion or time.
Any language that develops according to its own laws is so logical that nothing happens “just like that” in it.
Being originally a product of the Spirit, language, of course, is the bearer of spiritual categories.
This is probably why, in many Western countries, the work of F.M. Dostoevsky "Crime and Punishment" is considered the best detective story! “It’s incomprehensible to the mind”, but it’s true !!!
The thing is that those spiritual categories that are inherent ONLY in the Russian language are simply NOT in any other language.
Here is foul language, which many consider the product of "uncivilized or ignorance", treating it lightly, sometimes using it "for a bunch of words", is a product of a "sick" Spirit, "a spiritually seriously ill society."
Foul language thunders from the screens, politicians and the powers that be do not disdain them. Modern novels and detective stories, serials and folklore abound with words of this kind. For they are often written "on demand", striving to capture an ever larger audience, often pursuing a purely mercantile interest.
After all, what the mouth speaks depends on the condition of the heart, “for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks” (Matthew 12:34).
A Russian proverb says: "From a rotten heart and rotten words." When the human heart is corrupted, rotten, bad words appear as signs of spiritual decay.
The Lord says: “What comes from the mouth comes from the heart; this defiles a man” (Matthew 15:18). This means that profanity is a formidable symptom of a dangerous disease, a sign of an excess of filth in the heart. And if a person has so much rot in his heart, then foul language flows from him in an unstoppable stream. Such a person is the culprit of the death of not only his own, but also his neighbors. After all, the filth spewed out by his unclean lips enters the ears and hearts of the people around, and, what is most terrible, our CHILDREN!
A swear word imposes his thoughts on them, seduces the soul and, of course, disposes to vile imitation.
I often see parents encouraging such a monstrous process. A small child, without even understanding the meaning of this word, repeats it after his parents. What causes their stormy approval and laughter. He is forced to repeat it over and over - so "it sounds comical in pure children's lips"
I think this is from a lack of understanding of the true meaning of all these vile swear words, all that is true behind this!
After all, there was a time when I also widely used all this in my speech. I just didn't attach any importance to it.
Moreover, I thought, mat is an extremely “capacious, precise and concise” definition of “everything and everything”. The mat was accepted and approved in the circles of the intelligentsia. It was considered a kind of piquant detail to the image of an intelligent person. Something that erases barriers and even unites.
Now let's see if the choice of words in foul language is accidental.
The foul language is centered around a very specific topic: the genitals.
Thus, foul language is the culprit of the depravity of people, the most monstrous, children.
They are teachers of immorality, voluntary or involuntary destroyers of human souls, seducers of the innocent. That is, servants of the devil.
Foul language imperceptibly destroys chastity and decency, kindles carnal lust, giving rise to sexual promiscuity!
This choice of words is NOT RANDOM!
Verbal blasphemy is always associated with blasphemy action!
They grew up on the same soil and destroy the god-likeness of our human personality!
Foul language is the first step towards corruption, and hence, as a consequence, the first step towards more serious crimes.
And there is no need to look for the perpetrators of the destruction of our nation somewhere on the side; after all, it was we ourselves who gave power to demonic forces over ourselves.
After all, it is we ourselves who infect everything around with the virus of this serious disease.
After all, it is we ourselves who daily pour the poison of foul language into the ears and hearts of our neighbors, our own children!
And it bears fruit, growing into their flesh and blood.
In a person, the line between good and evil is erased and disappears, the heart becomes coarse, the person becomes cruel and proud, proud, bad inclinations develop.
And bad habits are acquired easily, but it is difficult to get rid of them.
And if a person does not have a spiritual core, no faith, no church in the soul, then this insidious spirit of foul language will tenaciously hold the souls that have fallen away from Christ.
The second direction of foul language - mate - is every kind of insult to the Mother, the most holy thing that man and mankind have.
This is the Mother of God - the Holy of Holies!
This is Mother Earth!
This is your own Mother!
What kind of patriotism can we talk about if its basic concepts are violated.
The holy fathers speak of this.
Saint John Chrysostom: “For shamefulness, God allows misfortunes, misfortunes and many diseases on a person.”
The Holy Apostle Paul: “Let no rotten word come out of your mouth” (in the Epistle to Ephesians 4:29).
And, finally, the words of the Lord Jesus Christ himself: “For every idle word that people say, they will give an answer on the day of Judgment (Matt. 12, 36-37).
“Jesus also said to his disciples: It is impossible not to be tempted. But woe to him through whom they come” (Luke, ch.17).
Knowing this and remembering this, many terrible and irreparable things can be avoided.
So I think..

You did a real study on foul language, Elena!) Motivated and reasoned!
And, of course, we can't help but agree with you! Especially children should not hear the mat and hear - not what to use ...
According to my 13-year-old son, however, there is a mat-reminder at school, and the 5th graders caught by him during duty usually surrounded those on duty with a multi-story mat ... So I presented it (((Sad (((
And there are those who know the mat - and will not get into trouble - but do not use it. Probably right. It is necessary to know, but not to use)))
And then, I remember, my aunt told me how her innocent colleague wanted to ask her male boss about what is written on the fence, which overlooked the windows of their translation department ... It's good that her colleagues stopped her))) And it was this is in the 60s...
Dear Vera Leonidovna! This topic is just stuck on my teeth .. I live on the first floor, opposite the school. I am often given the opportunity, in addition to my will, to listen to all this .. at the entrance to the school. The director thanked me for this. And the teachers were afraid to go out .. Contact .. Horror!
With gratitude and love
