Please, Tony - please continue to use holy names in holy ways - NOT indiscriminately and NOT in careless ways or in profane ways.
These things make absolutely NO DIFFERENCE to many viewers. I understand that because of the culture that I grew up in - both formal ways and very casual [read LIBERTARIAN]. (But to some of us (I would not venture to guesstimate how many either by numbers or percentile ranges) it now makes the difference between continuing to enjoy a particular show or our INABILITY TO CONTINUE to be faithful watchers.
Specific names that we respectfully request that you please CONTINUE to REFRAIN from using in casual or in non-holy ways: that of the Almighty Himself: the name "God"; also, the holy name of our Lord and savior, the name "Jesus".

Folks like us who feel this way don't usually jump up and down - don't scream and shout - they just stop watching. In fact, it is quite unusual for us even to attempt a communication like this one. But this time, we really hate to leave - we would genuinely miss your deep thoughts, sometimes expressed so casually and your wonderful humor. SO WE COME TO YOU RESPECTFULLY - which is the way that you chose to speak holy names for all of these years.

Warmest personal regards, sincerely, your appreciative fans, Rob and Samia

Tony, please use whatever terms you want in whatever ways you want. When you visit a foreign locale, it is one of the three rules of travel to be respectful of your guests and consider their sensibilities. However, when you broadcast a television show in America, you have no obligation to defer to specific religious groups. Be yourself, the self that we all love to watch, and ignore those who demand special treatment for their particular beliefs.

Ya know, there is a disclaimer/warning regarding the content of the show displayed prior to each segment. If you love his show so much, why must you try to act as censors or make him conform to your way of thinking? Get past it or just turn off Tony. BTW, when you capitalize words online, it's the equivalent of SHOUTING.
