Finally! Someone Explains The True Meaning Of Marriage & Why Homosexuals Shouldnât Have I
It wasnât until I became an outspoken atheist blogger, that I spent so much time writing about sex. In response to endless, blathering blog posts and articles by Christians and Catholics who seem beyond obsessed with the act, I have written dozens upon dozens of rants on the topic. Prior to Godlessmom.com, I hardly ever wrote about sex, because, well, you know us atheists and our preference to actually have sex over chatting about it, and not having the need to get up in everyone elseâs sex life

This May Horrify A Catholic Mom, But As An Atheist Mom, Iâd Be Proud
When I think of condoms, I think about the single invention could save our planet and our species. Generally, with a âbow-chicka-wow-wowâ in the background. Thinking about a pecker poncho usually brings a grin to my face, even if itâs not on the chiseled body of Alexander Skarsgard, because in this tiny little banger balloon, lies the solution to many of the worldâs most concerning problems⌠most importantly, preventing me from becoming a grandmama before I wanna be.The Catholic Church, as we kn

I stopped and waited, the scent of incense swirling around in the soupy air, and short Mexican women in white dresses and neon embroidery carried idols of saints next to robed altar boys and priests and trumpets and drums

Atheists, Is It Time We Ease Up On Our Persecution of Christians?
You canât really get out of bed anymore without hearing piles of Jeebots insist they are being persecuted all over the world. Writhing together like swarms of morons, they cry, âWhy did you kick God out of school?â and âWeâre an oppressed minority!â. Sure, they are in actual fact, the vast majority in the USA and many other countries. Sure there are more churches than schools in many places. Nevermind that Christ-lovers can freely marry, have never been forced to sit at the back of the bus, and
