It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts. (Sherlock Holmes - A Scandal in Bohemia.)

Rather than think climate change and the corona virus as science, think of it as the wrath of God. Feel any better?

A lot of popular english exclamations are blasphemous. People sort of say them...
- Gosh!
- Golly! (The movie Airplane!) makes good use of this.
- By jing!
- Gee Whiz!
- H E double hockeysticks (my favourite)
- Goldurn it!
- Dagnabbit!
- Dangnabbit! (alternate spelling)
- Dang (in general)
- "Go do something physically impossible."
George Bernard Shaw in his play Saint Joan, claims that the French called the English "goddamns" because they kept saying that. I have no idea of how historical that is.I have probably missed something cool.

Also assume you mean "slang".
"Slag" has an entirely different set of meanings....

To replace "god" with "gosh" is a sign of an earlier time, considered more "polite".
But look at how "god" is in many "polite" terms ... like "goodbye" (short for "god be with you")
ah "septic" ... a good example of how words have meanings from/by popular usage (it's an example of rhyming slang).

I have never heard the expression used that way. Could that explain this, by the Two man Gentlemen Band?

"The majority of Aussies today wouldn't have a clue about the North / South conflict." ... Sure, that's the Northern Territory trying to secede ...

Way back on a sawmill project a couple of engineer were up from Texas... I asked them if there was any truth to 'Clinton wanting to cut Alaska in half and making Texas the third largest state'. The reply was that, "Nothing that a**hole would do would surprise me."
