Secular Sexuality

Dr. Garcia, author of the book Alpha God: The Psychology of Religious Violence and Oppression, joins us for a fascinating discussion about the primal behavior of gods. Why do human gods seem to act very much like Chimps or other primates? Could humans be creating gods that look like us - primates with primate behavior? https://smile.amazon.com/Alpha-God-Psychology-Religious-Oppression-ebook/dp/B00N6PCQB2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1519669387&sr=8-1&keywords=Alpha+God%3A

Aaron Ferguson tells about growing up in the Children of God cult. From multiple wives to public sex, but don't dare be homosexual, and women don't have a choice. Also, see the Wiki page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_International

WHAT IS THE SECULAR SEXUALITY?

Secular Sexuality is a weekly call-in show live from Austin, Texas every Thursday at 7pm CT. We talk about sex from a secular perspective. Sex and sexuality are natural to all living creatures, but religion takes this and twists it into something awful and to be ashamed of.

Acceptance, education, and fun is what we strive for. We lay the intersection of sex and religion (and occasionally ourselves) bare, openly and honestly. We discuss a wide range of topics each week, removing the shame and reclaiming what has been natural to us all along. Secular Sexuality is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin.

The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.

We define atheism as the lack of belief in gods. This definition also encompasses what most people call agnosticism.

April tells of her journey from devout Christian missionary to her current Poly life. The second half of the episode deals with important relationship and psychological skills everyone should learn and practice. How to deal with emotions like fear of abandonment or possessiveness in a relationship.

This episode I ask the question, "What is the it?" Exploring deep structure beliefs that influence our behavior and undermine our happiness. Also, we listen to a story submitted by Jonathan about his exodus from religion and sexual awakening.

Robert and GiGi tells us about their transition from religion to guilt free sex in marriage - a very sexy story. She discovers the she likes to dominate, he discovers his love of furniture. It's a look inside marriage that we don't get to see very often.

Alix Jules joins Candace Gorham and I to talk about loving sexual relationships that cross racial lines. There was so much to talk about from so many angles. This explores sexuality, race and relationships in a way that is rarely discussed.

This week is a pussy likin good episode. When you are finished listening, you will love your pussy, your dick or your balls a lot more. We talk with Cidney about her Pussy over Pain video, and her philosophy of sexuality. If you don't laugh during this one, you aren't getting enough....

For the first time we explore how Scientology screws up your sex life as we talk with Chris Shelton - Critical Thinker at Large. Chris was in the Sea Org for 17 years and talks about Scientology from an insider's perspective. As you might expect, even masturbation is forbidden, to say nothing of sex before or outside of marriage.

Kory discusses her life as a submissive in the BDSM world. She shares her desire for pleasure through pain and the way she discovered the path to subspace and eroticism through play. We hear about clubs, orgies and electrical play.

This week I talk with Josh who has been a Dom in the BDSM world for some time. We explore in some detail the various emotions, attitudes and even how he has done scenes. He and his wife are also poly, so we explore that a bit as well.
