Thy words shall condemn thee

We hear daily an increase in a profanity laden vernacular which passes for communication. Profanity has become a staple in the cinema and in literature (if you can call it literature). What has happened to the language of poetry, as for instance, the sheer beauty of expression, and the wisdom laden simplicity of the following lines?
“No man is an island,
Entire of itself,
Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thy friend’s
Or of thine own were:
Any man’s death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind,
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee.”  (John Donne)
Profound! Edifying! Yes, it is good to consider elevating words and profound thought, “For our words will condemn us, yea, all our works will condemn us; we shall not be found spotless; and our thoughts will also condemn us; and in this awful state we shall not dare to look up to our God; and we would fain be glad if we could command the rocks and the mountains to fall upon us to hide us from his presence.” (Alma 12:14).
“But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.” (Matthew 12:36-37)
