The Turning Point USA alternative Super Bowl halftime show featuring Kid Rock has been criticized both by the politically correct and by Christians because of Kid Rock’s use of profanity. While some Christians eschew profanity, others may actually use it to follow Jesus’ directive to be fishers of men.Although using the Lord’s name in vain is a defined sin, simple profanity isn’t necessarily sinful. Using profanity in conjunction with “God” or “Jesus Christ” triggers the Ten Commandments clause prohibiting the use of the Lord’s name in vain. Other profanity should be assessed on a case-by-case basis to determine whether it is sinful. If it is not sinful, it may actually be useful to Christians.Profanity is more blatant when used as an adjective or an interjection
