the pietistic will say it was the sacrilegious
but in reality all is equally sacred & nothing is profane
indeed the very notion of profanity is just another scam by the clergy to maintain its power over the laity
in this case beginning in the 15th century
for a fane was & or is simply a temple or church
& pro fane meant & or means in front of or outside the temple
rather than permitted or admitted inside
& profanity was & may still be any sort of speech or other activity that could get you barred from or kicked out of the supposedly holy or holier place

How were bad words created?
There are no bad words. Languages need words for all sorts of reasons, and profane language is created for much the same reason scientific language is created - because it is needed by some sections of a society. A word is a profanity because it offends (or it is intended to offend), or mocks a portion of that society, and once it loses that ability it ceases to be profane.
