English people, help me :(?
I read an article that said "...There has been barely any change between the studies in the proportion of respondents who considered that words from a religious origin used as expletives were ‘severe’. More respondents thought ‘Jesus Christ’ was very severe (14%) than said the same about ‘God’ (10%)..."

1. Jesus Christ and God are sever because they insult religion and if you say it, you are blaspheming.
2. Paki is a racist slur against Pakistanis, Indians, and people with dark skin.
Shag is a word meaning sex, and it is very strong.
Prick means penis, and is very strong, especially when used to describe a person.
Bollocks means testicles, along with balls, it is very rude.

Using the words "Jesus Christ" and "God" are seen as vulgar and an insult to Holiness. It's considered blasphemous, but more people say God nowadays to imply shock.
Paki - A racial slur for Pakistani man or woman
Shag - To have sex.
Prick - Dual meaning. Usually an insult, but can mean male genitalia (the penis)
Bollo*ks - Usually implying disagreement, but can also mean the male scrotums.
They're usually meant as sexual swear words, so people take offense at them.

those are bad or profane languages that they use to address just to humiliate Jesus Christ because they don't believe in Him
