Why? Trying to get your gears going, are you?
And Atheist. The only restrictions they have are based on what they don't like and the fact that their partners need to be consenting adults.

My gut reaction was to say atheist, because it seems to me that there would be no restrictions on your sex life besides what you and your partner want or don't want. Then again, if you find someone within your religion that makes you happy, the shared religion would be a blessing, not a restriction. I guess I'm saying that it depends on the person. For an atheistic person, atheism would work best. Same with social life, though a religious person would have their entire church as a built-in social network...but there's really no reason an atheist couldn't have something similar.

I'm not sure exactly who's a theist, but I can assure you that marital relations play a very large part in Judaism. You'll have to do the research for yourself though.
Social life? You won't find a closer community than that of the Jews. I'm not sure what this has to do with sexual life though... Are you referring to extramarital affairs?

Theology teaches that sexuality has a social responsibility. No matter what people say, sex is about having children, intended or unintended. These offspring need the love and nurturing of a father and a mother. When there is true love between a man and woman, the overwhelming pleasure of sex unites them and gives them the strength to commit themselves to the love of the children.

I am a Christian and I find my sexual romance with my husband to be very satisfying. I think that if I had hang-ups say from unresolved childhood nightmares, then that would affect me more than my beliefs. I feel blessed to be with one person. As far as a social life, because I know him so well, when we go out it is easier to tell when one of us wants to leave and I feel safe when I go places. We enjoy ourselves whenever we have a sitter, be it at home or out on the town.

I don't know about that since I'm a Christian, but I will say that my husband and I have enjoyed the best sex when I've been pregnant. GREAT! Doesn't get any better! Except for when were trying to get pregnant~ that's pretty dang good too. I LOVE my hubby. Sex, before marriage, was never as good as it is now, and every year were together it just gets better.

Well not all theists are created equal - if you're Muslim you can have up to 4 wives. If you're Christian or Jewish only one.
And what do you want out of your sexual life? Variety? Security? Love? Tenderness? Violence? You have to define what you want before you can judge which is better.
The bible teaches that Christians are to be bonded lifelong to one partner of the opposite sex. It also teaches that if you are a husband your body does not belong to you but to your wife - and if you are a wife, your body does not belong to you but to your husband. - We are to spend a lifetime learning to please our one chosen partner.
Having been in a monogomous Christian sexual relationship for 8 years I can tell you it is fantastic. I am safe, I am secure, I am free to express my preferences and desires and he has become an expert in satisfying them. We have excellent communication and we make it our mission to please the other person instead of pleasing ourself. - I wouldn't have it any other way, personally :)

I am an atheist and have been married to the same woman for forty years plus. I have never stepped out on her. Why? Because I have that much respect for her. She is a wonderful person and deserving of having someone who realizes that and acts accordingly.

I agree with CJ abstaining from sex saves the harsh consequnces. That is why "sex" is saved for marriage. Yeah you can go out and have sex with as many people you want and end up with something you don't want. No one wants to wait for marriage becuase of commitment so thats why people engage in pre-marital sex.

It is unquestionably better to be an Atheist. WHY? Because when you are an Atheist, the ONLY time you have to think of or even say "Oh, GOD!" is when you're coming. I truly hope that THIS answers all questions.
