Here is my unworthy opinion. I would think that most of us here have never even heard that Gosh represents God...and Geez, Jesus. I have never heard that before in my life. Now, if this is true, then our hearts will be touched to change these words in our life into something else. Like for me, When I was not a Christian, I used to say, "For God's sakes" So once I became a Christian, I, personally found it to be extremely offensive, but the phrase was always on the tip of my tongue. So I took God out of it completely and replaced it with corn. That way no name is used. And no offense taken by anyone.
If these roots are true, then yes, we should wake up to it, and it is a good wake up call....but we can't force people to make this decision, as everyone's backgrounds are different. Raised differently. If God convicts one of cutting those words out, fine, if they don't feel convicted, then it is their walk....
Just my little opinion.
