NSFW: Plastic Jesus is a tit man.
Sometimes, the only appropriate thing to do is blaspheme.
Does this make up for the fact that my site was down (server maintenance) for several hours yesterday? I hope so.

"Hey, I want to take a bath. Sex first, or bath first?"He looked at me, stuck another spoonful of soup in his mouth, and said,
"Sex."At the time, I was sitting on the floor in front of him, looking up. I'm one of those people who tends to actually act on odd ideas (seriously, ask anyone who knows me), and right then, I had an idea.
"Of course you'd do that."...and then kept right on eating.
There is no greater gift that a bride can give than to offer her pure, unsullied maidenhead to her husband on their wedding night.Yes, yes there is. My maidenhood is not sullied by practicing sex before marriage. If I am an experienced sexual partner, I know my wants and needs. If my partner and I have sex before marriage, it tell us a great deal about our sexual compatibility.
Fortunately, you can engage in anal sex prior to marriage and still be able to share the deeper, more meaningful act of consecrated love through vaginal intercourse with your wedded spouse.Oh I see. So if Flimsy and I get married, our sex is less meaningful because I wasn't a virgin before he and I met and because I'd looked someone else in the eye while fucking? I think he'd beg to differ. Plus, how come guys don't have to be virgins? Where is the talk of a husband offering his pure, unsullied bachelorhood to his wife on their wedding night?
The Madonna of Orgasm Church (Orgasmens Madonnas kyrka) took an important step toward official recognition in Sweden last week when a court ruled it had the right to be registered as a faith community.
Originally, the Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency (Kammarkollegiet) had refused the church’s registration application on the grounds that its name may offend Christians.Obviously I don't think the orgasm is god, but I like that this church recognizes the fundamental spirituality of sex.
But the church’s founder, artist Carlos Bebeacua from Lövestad in southern Sweden, won his appeal to the county administrative court.
If the agency does not appeal the court’s decision within three weeks, then it must process Bebeacua’s application to register the church, which he founded in the early 1990s.
According to the Skånska Dagbladet newspaper, the idea for the church came to Bebeacua, who is the church’s self-appointed cardinal, after a painting of his entitled 'The Madonna of Orgasm' sparked protests requiring police action during the 1992 World’s Fair in Seville, Spain.
“The orgasm is God, the orgasm should be worshiped,” Bebeacua told the Kvällsposten newspaper.
“The orgasm is the ultimate feeling of lust, it shouldn’t be limited to ejaculation. You can reach it through art or by looking at a landscape and thinking ‘Wow!’”
According to Bebeacua, the church has a few hundred followers, and he hopes that registering the Madonna of Orgasm Church will get more people to consider the orgasm as God.
The church only has priestesses and its scriptures are called the Catechism of the Orgasm. The only gospel peached is the gospel of sex.
“It’s so we do what we know is right and good,” Bebeacua told Kvällsposten.
During ceremonies, the priestesses read verses and eat fruit and drink juice. Sex isn’t the focus, but it’s not forbidden either.
“It’s never happened. I don’t know how we’d react if it happened,” said Bebeacua.
He deflects allegations that his church is all about orgies and sex, claiming its purpose is to help people see orgasms as a metaphor for a love of life.
“There’s nothing dangerous in what we say, we’re harmless. It’s just that we have our doubts about established religions,” he told the TT news agency
Sexuality, to me, is fundamentally spiritual. It's also an expression of ubuntu. I know sex may seem like a basic instinctual function, and they may think that rising above one's own instincts is a way to be a more evolved person, but I think that recognizing that sex is instinctual and thus embracing it as part of being human is being much more true to oneself. I'm not talking about raping and being unsafe, I am talking about accepting one's own innate sexual drives as being healthy. Obviously, there is a point when sexual drives can be unhealthy - say, if you endanger yourself or infringe upon the rights of others. Sexual instincts themselves are not unhealthy. They don't prevent people from attaining spiritual fulfillment or enlightenment. On the contrary, I think healthy sex can be used to obtain spiritual fulfillment.Labels: atheism, blasphemy, culture, disability, Eros, faith infiltration, spirituality
His head is not under the quilt, so he can't see what I am doing. I rustle around, and then lick his shin. He lets out a little moan.
A particularly short throw caused the Frisbee to land neatly in the wet grass directly between us. We both approached and embraced each other. His back glistened with sweat, so I playfully groped his chest and back.
He wrapped his arms around me from behind and said, “I love you” then leaned down to kiss me. I chucked another ball for the dog, and then turned back and pulled him roughly to the ground.
