I think you need to reread what I said. I said that I have a hard time associating love and sex. Not "anyone" just me.

In your first post you asked someone to explain how sex is thought of as a gift. When he did you said you don't associate love and sex. I'm just making the logical connection.

I'm not seeing that logical connection. I thought it was pretty obvious I was just talking about myself in that post.

Sex /= love

I don't think people disagree with that; rather, sex should be used (ideally) as an expression of love.

I think people should keep their beliefs to themselves. Unless explicitly asked to share by another person. There's nothing worse then someone who tries to push their shit on you.

Just finished watching this a few minutes ago, Hitchens and Fry make all the sense here.

Today while I was waiting in line, a man proceeded to ask me if I know I am going to be saved. It caught me completely off-guard but I told him no. He figured out I don't believe in anything. He kept talking to me while I was paying and I had to ask him to stop talking to me. Not going to lie, I was slightly perturbed.

I am not a confrontational atheist, and out of habit I generally don't tell people I'm a non-believer. But if I were to actively go out and talk to people about my (lack of) beliefs, it wouldn't be acceptable. This is not news to me. However, I don't bother others, so don't bother me. You respect me, and I'll respect you. And I know that not all religious people act as that man did.

I just wanted to pay my car tax!

I'm definitely a confrontational atheist. Well, agnostic really. I think it's the end result of having Catholicism drilled into my head for 18 years.
