If i am understanding this correctly its like seeing the tree that i have often run into (control) rather than the whole forest (religion).

Fair enough then lets look at this tree only.

In this country (America) I have seen a fair amount on social damage done due to the popular sex culture. Its as if they (Christians) tried to supress the sex drive but instead only ended up attaching guilt and shame to it. Few actually consider their religion when it comes to premarital sex at least not till confession time. In essence the tactic appears to be a failure.

What lingers however is the unneccessary bad feelings about a normal human desire.

As an atheist or at least as a progressive how can I(we) counter this cultural problem?
