Here's some Scripture that I want to share with you out of the Message Bible.  This is for ALL of us!

Matthew 5:33-37.  Don't say anything you don't mean.   This counsel is embedded deep in our traditions.  You only make things worse when you lay down a smoke screen of pious talk, saying, "I'll pray for you", and never doing it, or saying, "God be with you", and not meaning it.  You don't make your words (more) true by embellishing them with religious lace.  In making your speech sound more religious, it becomes less true.  Just say "yes" and/or "no".  When you manipulate words to get your own way, you go wrong.
