It seems to be that the popularity of atheism has risen very quickly since the advent of the sexual revolution. The sexual revolution’s message was “Have sex with who you want, whenever you want, for whatever reason you want”. I interpret that to mean “Forget the rules of sex defined by the ancient old Church. You define sex for yourself”.<ref>[https://thirstingfortruth.com/lust-leads-to-atheism-2/ Lust Leads to Atheism]</ref>}}

Doug Giles wrote in his essay ''Atheism: An Intellectual Revolt or Pelvic Rebellion?''
{{Cquote|I think the atheists believe in not believing, however, not because they’re intellectual little dandies but because they want to be autonomous, loose and randy.
As [[Dinesh D’Souza]] said about the atheist’s faith in no faith in his new book What’s So Great About [[Christianity]]: “Atheism is not primarily an intellectual revolt, it’s a moral one.” God, that’s got to hurt you guys because you pride yourself on being so wise . . . so sophisticated . . . and here he/we are saying that your atheism rises out of hedonism instead of intellectualism. Ouch. Need a bandaid?
[[Bertrand Russell]]: “The worst feature of the Christian religion is its attitude toward sex.”
[[Christopher Hitchens]]: “The divorce between the sexual life and fear . . . can now at last be attempted on the sole condition that we banish all religions from the discourse.”
Sounds like these atheist apostles are simply putting a nuevo twist on an ancient bent. They appear to be humming the [[Marquis de Sade]]’s tune more than Sagan’s. Looks and sounds like a moral revolt to me. Yes, this is [[Epicurus]] all over again.
You remember Epi, don’t cha? His whole goal was to “get rid of the gods.” He and his other pre-Socratic “thinkers” like [[Lucretius]] and [[Democritus]] didn’t like all that duty and responsibility to higher powers and fellow mortals crap. It put a hitch in their get along. It brought them pain and they liked pleasure. They believed that such an obligation to men and the gods caused too much anxiety. They didn’t like the thought of being responsible and having to account for their lives in the afterlife. Such thoughts really screwed with getting their groove on, ya know what I’m sayin’?<ref>[https://townhall.com/columnists/douggiles/2007/10/27/atheism-an-intellectual-revolt-or-pelvic-rebellion-n1158257 Atheism: An Intellectual Revolt or Pelvic Rebellion?] by Doug Giles</ref>
