Maybe the teacher doesn't want the children to use God's name in vain? Doubtful. He equated it with the "f-word."

Some people use it that way. I would want the teacher to clarify.

For some, taking the Lord's name in vain and cursing are equivalently 'bad things'.
I would determine the context first.
This person may be trying to install some moral sensibility that could be valuable.
Temperance should be your watchword.

Wow...talk about a parallel I could have never imagined seeing put side by side.

It never fails.

Whenever I'm sure I'd seen it all...something else always comes along to top it.
