if sex is strictly for reproduction.....

....Then women who have suffered from cervical cancer and had their cervixes removes/damaged cannot have sex.

Go figure.

Accepting your premise for the moment... why does that mean they cant have sex?

i was speaking on behalf of the  many people in this world who believe that sexual intercourse is for reproduction.

i was also commenting on how it makes no sense  and would alienate someone they know or a friend of a friend.

Why? Something that has a strict purpose doesn't necessarily have to be 100% successful at fulfilling it.

But they still have the same brain. Remove the brain and they cannot have sex. The brain is THE sex organ (in a manner of speaking).

I think you could better flesh out your topic. Provide the opposing viewpoint.

If it's strictly for reproduction then that would mean the need for reproduction would increase, so every chance a child could be created it would, right?

i've heard this argument before, so many times.

One of the best times i have ever heard the argument was with my aunt who said that homosexuality is wrong because sexuality was meant for reproduction.

ironically she had her tubes tied.

Go figure.

Even if the need for reproduction increased, what makes you think this would have an effect on the rate of successful attempts to conceive?

i feel sorry for her. Pretty much anyone who denies that homosexuality is wrong, lives a shitty life, especially if they have an active sex life and are in a relationship that is entrenched in that life.

I didn't accuse you of saying that; you said something about people who don't believe it's wrong, and I'm just commenting on what you said.

You said "Pretty much anyone who denies that homosexuality is wrong, lives a shitty life..."; denying that homosexuality is wrong is the same thing as not believing that it's wrong, and my comment was just addressing your belief regarding people who deny that sexuality is wrong.

Also, in my book, homosexuality is for when you're REALLY horny. We all have the anima within us, and she can possess us. That is, we know what the perfect mate for us would be, archetypally defined through millions of years of evolution in this strange world, and to succeed control over to this archetype can occur and involves a rush of femininity. What's the best way to express your stolen femininity except to exploit it?

I don't know what the triggers are but searching for the perfect female may wake it.

You don't think it's possible for different people to have different ideas of what the "perfect mate" is? Maybe it's possible for some people to feel that their perfect mate would be someone of the same sex? :justdontknow:

Made by whom?

The evolutionary process, whichever suits your belief.

But the evolutionary process has no direction or purpose. You can't really say that anything that results from it was "made" for a specific function. All you can say is what it is currently used for.
And sex, obviously, is not currently used just for reproduction.

It's just like dragonflies' wings - at one point they were "for" cooling down the insect, then at some point they acquired a new use - flying. Neither of these is the "true use" of the wings, just one is currently more advantageous in it's particular evolutionary niche.

As for the FSM, well, none can refute Him or His Power.

Oh I agree, I said "made" because that's the flavor of this thread.

I totally believe that evolution just is and was in no way intended.

Thats true, but I think that anthropomorphizing things isn't necessarily bad and can lead to new understanding.  I think its a key to how humans understand the universe, so I dont shy away from doing it.

I don't always either. In some cases it might lead one to the correct interpretation.

@Poid

If we were meant to only reproduce then yes, I believe everytime someone procreates, a child would be created.

That's what I was getting at.
