In the UK, "bloody" is considered a mild swear word as it originated as an offensive term in the 17th century. It was associated with invoking the power of blood and was deemed inappropriate for polite conversation due to its association with strong emotions or anger. Over time, the word became widely used and is now considered a minor swear word.
"Bloody hell" is a British expression used to express surprise, frustration, or annoyance. The word "bloody" is considered a mild swear word in British English, and when combined with "hell," it intensifies the emotion being conveyed.

Well, it's not a curse, but it usually isn't appreciated when said extremely often.
Traditionally, it is the Bible, though I can't find anything documenting what he used, if he used a book at all.

Bloody used to be a swear word in England but has now evolved. It was said to be used by Queen Elizabeth I to refer to her sister as Bloody Mary for the Queen Mary Tudor has killed many Protestants. It was originally used to describe horrible situation that can cause a bloody sight, then switch to a commonly used "swear" word. Now it isn't much used as a swear word.
I know a few people who constantly use the word and to me the word bloody is used like a replacement curse word so-to-speak. Its like when you get real angry at something but you don't want to use real curse words.
