The fact that we're tool users ought to disabuse us of any notion that we were well designed for -anything-. We didn't have to come up with spear points and hoes because we were well designed even to -feed- ourselves. We've spent our entire existence, as a species, attempting to overcome the flaws and limitations of our "design", just so we could live another day....and even with all of that we fail and die off at a disturbing rate. The only thing that's ever worked for us, uniformly, is to spit out more of us than this rock can axe at any given time (and that's also, conveniently, been a leading cause of death itself)....but sexual promiscuity is something "god" has a real problem with, apparently. It goes against some "purpose" he has in mind, some design. That purpose and design, by the crushing weight of evidence, can only be misery and death. That's what we're "designed" to do, that's our "divine purpose". To suffer and then, inevitably, die in a cosmic morality play.
Some design, some designer.
Some design, some designer.
