Never understood why 'damn' is a swear word. Is it a religious thing?

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 15 points 1 month ago

it relates to damnation and is basically short for 'i sentence you to eternal damnation/hell'

It lost all of its flare when being condemned to hell became a casual thing (eg. 'go to hell')
