<?php
$swear = array("abuse1", "abuse2", "abuse3", "abuse4", "abuse5", "abuse6");
$text="Hello you abuse1 abuse2 how are you, abuse3 abuse4 abuse5 abuse6";
echo "$text <br><br>";
foreach($swear as $key=> $value){
$text = str_replace("$value", "****", $text);
}
echo "$text";
?>

you replace "abuse1", "abuse2", ... with your list of words and the
$text line with your line to strip out words, like:

$swear = array("cat","poo","dog","sex");
$text = $_POST['comments'];

or whatever field you're looking to filter instead of comments.
