"OH GOD" - Atheist Orgasms!

Disclaimer this thread is rated M for "mature audiences" so to our younger TA members, you are forewarned.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Similar to the excellent post about Atheismisms, I would like to take the discussion to a similar but more specific topic, orgasms!

So, how many of us still say, like "bless you" when you sneeze, mainly out of habit, "oh god" or "oh my god" when you have an orgasm?

I have to confess sometimes I do. Does this is ever bother you? Do you catch yourself and think, does this give the believers ammo? When you are at your most excited and ecstatic place physically, you scream out to the the invisible man! What does this say?!? For those from other countries I would like to know what you all say?

NOT having the orgasm would bother me, exclaiming whatever does not !

Really, I am so far gone down the road to hormonal high (Thank you Oxytocin - you are my one true god !) that I am not even aware what I exclaim, and as my wife is profoundly deaf there is no point in asking her.

Sneezing we say "gezondheid" which is Dutch for Gesundheit. These little sayings are as much cultural than reflecting any belief in a deity these days as they have worked their way deep into our everyday lexicon so I do not think any atheist should get bent out of shape about them.

If your more concerned with what you're saying then what's going on then you're doing something wrong.
