Sexual Attraction is evidence of evolution not creation.

Sexual Attraction is evidence of evolution not creation. When we choose someone to have sex with, it is both a carrot and a stick. Both sexes have both strong attractions and strong aversions to otherwise normal people.
As far as I know and can google for, the bible does not have a guideline for finding someone attractive nor is it eugenic. Even references it has are so pathetic.
http://www.openbible.info/topics/choosing_a_mate
Why would a created being be worried about eugenics? Why would a creator want his man or woman to be so pick as to "leave out" so many of the progeny pool. Why would he want the unattractive to suffer so much and give so much preference to the attractive, sexy, minority?
Looking through the eyes of evolution though it is obvious. It is a survival tool and is one of the pillars of the theory.
Yet for god, it makes no good sense to be such a dick.

Doesn't "natural selection" include "sexual selection"?

Personally I select "sexy sex" .. maybe a little role play. Next question!

"X is evidence of A and not B why? Because I said so."
The above is essentially what you are arguing. Is this the best you can do?

Yes, I think it is primarily sexual selection. I can't think of a singe exception off the top of my head.

When you die because you're too weak/sickly to make it into puberty?
Ha ha! Yeah, that wasn't my train of thought. I wasn't thinking of the "survival" part, I was concentrating on the Sexual Selection. Why would nature choose a mate that wasn't for sexual reasons?
I live in a fog sometimes..

Sexual reasons are often survival reasons, survival of the offsprings. Our outward appearances used to be a good indicator of our health, of course now everything can be disguised, brain power ftw.
