Have you ever wondered how religion has influenced our language just try exclaiming!!!!
Does anyone have any decent non-theist exclamations?
Thanks : )

It certainly is not a silly gesture. Becoming conscious of how far religion has rooted itself into daily life to the point that we unconsciously speak Christian is a step (a small step no doubt) in the direction of freeing us from the tentacles of organised religion.

I most often use exclamations with god or hell or holy in them but I do use these too: What the Fuck?, What on Earth?, Shit!, Crap!, Fuck!, Fucking-A!
NO NO NO NO NO! Polite fucking conversation. Do you people have no shame? Exclamations I can use in front of my frail upstanding Grandma.
'Thundering Typhoons!', as well as anything else that Captain Haddock says.

In Quebecois they use church terms as well:
Tabernak!
Calisse!
Ostie!
But for a good, non-theistic expletive, I prefer, "cock juggling thunder cunts!"
@Heather. You are so badass. My grandma would box your ears for such language.

Quite a number, but they all involve bodily functions --
