Secularized Language

Those with an anti-Christian agenda, such as liberals, homosexuals, atheists, evolutionists and leftists have attempted to remove the Christian origins of our language by replacing common phrases with secularized versions. By appealing to tolerance and political correctness, they have succeeded in propagating these secularized versions, even among those who don't share their views.
