I'm trying to figure out whether you're the author trying to (badly and misguidedly) promo your own book or whether you're genuinely offended. If you're the former, Twitter, Facebook and other social media works a lot better than trolling a message board.
If you really did buy it on Amazon, I'm confused as to why it's not ranked (as in Amazon Bestsellers Rank: #300,843 Paid in Kindle Store). That suggests to me that it hasn't yet had a sale on Amazon.
Also, this is self-published. The clue is on the Amazon page where it says: Publisher: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform (8 May 2014). Quite possibly no editor vetted the book before the author self-pubbed, and certainly there is no publisher standing behind it. (Note: I'm not saying all self-published books are bad. There are great ones out there, and some fantastic authors, but you can get some real dreck as well.)
Now, if you REALLY want to complain about this book that "glorifies intercourse outside of marriage" and is "blasphemous" then go ahead. But don't hold your breath for a ban.
