Who is an Atheist? Atheist is someone who denies the existence of god, he denies the existence of god and the theories that explain there is god. When I try to pen this piece of prose, I have only one thing in my mind which flashes thousand and one times which reminds me that I am an atheist.
There is a fabrication that atheist are stupid people who ignore the existence of god. Yes, as an atheist I ignore the belief that there is god.
Osho says there is no religion but there is only religiousness. But what difference do religion and religiousness can do. Religion is a practice which makes people confined and restricted within the parameters of religion. Religiousness is a term which takes only the verb of religion, I mean the spirit of religion, which understands the basic concept of all religions. The views of an atheist are different than the ordinary mob minded people, but what about in the matters of Sex.
Lets see how relationships and sex matters to an atheist. Atheist is not in any way different from a religious person, the thing which differentiates an atheist from a theist are the thoughts. Lets take an case study. Oedipus Complex and Electra Complex. So what is Oedipus Complex? Oedipus, is Greek mythological character who had sex with his own mother but without knowing. From this was the term Oedipus Complex coined. What is Electra complex? The Electra complex is the psychoanalytic theory that a female's psychosexual development involves a sexual attachment to her father.
How a theist takes these Oedipus Complex and Electra Complex and how an atheist takes it? A theist will obviously consider them to be a sin which will never end and extends its territory till eternity. Theist consider mothers and fathers to be god, but atheist consider mother and father to be more divine. There is lot of difference between considering someone to be god and considering someone to be divine. Divine is of eternity and god is of idealistic.
Sex, as a Freud says, it is a feeling of the body and not of the emotions. To a distance, sex is of the emotions and that is why having sex are termed as making love and sleeping. An atheist considers like me sex as love making. You do not love someone you don't like. So is the reason why having sex is called love making. Atheist consider sex to be a part of the organ just like nose, head and legs. They are not something which is to be ashamed of, you live with it and you cannot live it. Theist and atheist differ only in their perception.

I don find any differences between love and sex if you vividly understand what they are.
