As I have mentioned in a different thread, my parents are hard Christian right. When I was in middle school and early high school, I blindly followed their ideology. Now that I am questioning everything, I am curious about what you think of sexual purity and abstinence. Maybe it's indoctrination, but I think that sex should wait until after marriage. Do you believe that "atheist abstinence" is an oxymoron, as if abstinence is strictly a religious thing? Can something (like marriage) be sacred without God? If there is no God, is marriage meaningless?
