Just a quick note on this comment. Taking someone's name in vain refers to a woman getting married, taking her husband's name, and then acting as if shes not married to him via her behavior (cheating, etc). Some people "take the Lord's name in vain" similarly by accepting Jesus and what he's done for us and continuing to act as if they hadn't - doing the same exact things as before. What this doesn't mean is cursing.
"Do not carry the name of the Lord thy God in vain"
Meaning do not commit evil in the name of God. Think of the damage Catholic priest do when they sexually assault young boys, not only are they sinning by theyr action but they are breaking the 3rd commandment by being a public representative of God and committing evil.
FUKN OMG Thank you! I've been sayin this shit forever. Sayin God Da__it feels weird to some ppl bet sounds bad to a lot but No one actually means to command God to damn anything & even so that still, to me at least, doesn't reach the level of importance that this commandment implies. It never sat right w/me.
Now being a monster cult leader to have access to women, children, vulnerable, weak, or dumb people for your perversions, abuses, or to take from & using God as your cover THAT IS FUKN TAKING the lords name in vain. Being a foundation named after a saint, church, maryter, a priest, an angel etc & stealing the money or scamming the people thats taking his name in vain. Being a representative of any religion in any position & abusing in any ways its members is taking the lords name in vain.
I feel like this should be common sense. If you seriously consider the commandment & the implications this is the only logical definition, idk.
But I've said this out loud to ppl & they act as if I'm a pagan heathen speaking venomous lies & conjuring blasphemies. So I keep it to myself
and then she posted an iphone note she wrote jfc
don't use the Lord's name in vain please.

Correction to both
Translation from Hebrew is:
"Do not carry the name of the Lord thy God in vain"
