Profane?

From:Patrick Jarrett <seraph@...>

What defines a word to be profane? In what point does a language and its people
accept the word to be a profanity and not just a word? Why and how do people
start new ones as a slang term?

Just something I have been pondering and wanted my colleagues opinions.
