RE: Offensive sound
I don't find the sound offensive. As Patchou said, its a very common phrase, not only in North America, but at least as far as i know it's very  common in Hispanic countries.

It's not used against Religion, Christianity. It's just a common phrase to express Surprise. The meaning of that phrase is probably, "Oh My God", asking God to help you understand the situation that surprises you.

Of course, in MSN is used more generally, and as a joke. But not a joke directed against God. I don't find it a lack of respect.
