I am not sure who can comment on my take on the question, but I would like to tell everyone how the comment "Oh my God" means. I think that we here in US are the ones that have used that too much in the wrong way. So we admit guilt. For religious people it could be felt as offensive, since in the Catholic doctrine states that "though shall not use the Lord's name in vain" just as in the 10 commandments. Like I said though we all use it quite regularly but not to be offensive of course. So we just are so used to saying it. Its as common as saying "What in the hell" which does sound ugly but its easily forgiven. Hope that helps anyone!

Greetings from Texas in USA!
