I never got why they think these are curse words. Is it a weird religious thing?

I know the Bible has a thing about using God's name in vain, so they don't like it when you use his title as an interjection. I know ancient Jews didn't like writing out Yahweh, and nowadays they'll even write G-d to avoid breaking a commandment. The rules can be weird. So yeah, a weird religious thing.

Hasn't the name of God changed a bunch? I mean, doesn't the el in a bunch of names mean god? Every time you say Michael or Raphael or whatever your saying his name in vain

Yeah. I'm not sure where the specific lines in the sand are. And I'm not really trying to defend them either, this is just what I was brought up being told.

Ye it's weird

idk about the Jesus fandom but in Judaism there’s the same rule but many would say it only applies to God’s “real” name which may or may not be YHWH.

"in vain" is the important bit.
