Why Am I Tempted Sexually?

THE EVOLUTIONIST POINT OF VIEW

I suppose there are many different Evolutionist points of view, but there is one dominant theme, which is survival of the species.  Somehow through millions of years, we developed the capability to reproduce through the two genders copulating together.  The sexual feelings and attractions that each one of us have are all a part of nature bringing us together for the continuation of the species.

One feminist Evolutionist I heard on the radio stated that evolution designed men to plant sperm in as many women as possible, whereas evolution helped women to become more focused on one man for the sake of her offspring.

The one thing that I would take issue with here is that women by nature are focused on one man. Life does not follow that rule.  Women are not always - or even generally - attracted to one man. Some studies have shown that about 19 percent of women will cheat while 23 percent of men will. That's not a large difference in percentage.  So I don't buy this feminist's argument.

From an Evolutionist point of view, I believe a more accurate view would be that both genders are prone to look at many for the purpose of continuing the species.

THE CREATIONIST POINT OF VIEW

God created sex for the continuation of the species.  Jesus told his opponents that we would not be married in heaven but be like the angels.  Jude (the brother of Jesus) quoted from the Book of Enoch and Jesus probably referred to the book when he claimed that the angels don't reproduce because their species never die.  Humans, on the other hand, must reproduce to survive.  Jesus concluded as the Book of Enoch states - angels don't have sex because their species don't need it to continue.  When we die we won't need it either to live eternally, so there will be no marriage in heaven.

The Creationist and the Evolutionist agree that intercourse is designed for the continuation of the species.  The only difference between the Creationist and the Evolutionist would be a matter of when all this was placed in humankind.  The Evolutionist would say that this took millions of years to develop whereas the Creationist would say that God created us with the desires and the need to reproduce.

Any way you look at it, we are sexual by nature and that sexual attraction to others is in all of us.  We are born with the sexual DNA that will come alive when we reach puberty. Because we are by nature sexual beings, we will by nature be sexually attracted to certain others.
