If you can't find a consistent sex partner, you're better off going solo. This is not unjustified.......the more females you have sex with, the greater your risk of getting a disease, plus getting a bunch of females pregnant would be a nightmare. God is just watching out for you, when He wants to "restrict" your sex life. Although you're free to do what you want. I know a lot of people would rather act like monkeys than dignified human beings.
You presented 2 problems:
1. risk of getting a disease
2. getting a bunch of females pregnant
and you stated a goal that the god has
1. God is just watching out for you
So, that goal can be achieved by eliminating diseases or not creating the diseases or making humans immune to those microorganisms + viruses.
Why has this god been able to solve problem #1?
For the pregnancy, why not just offer a switch? Let's say the switch is somewhere on your left shoulder.
When you turn off the switch, the woman doesn't release an egg.
A man can have a switch as well. When he turns off the switch, no sperm cells would be released.
Why has this god been able to solve problem #2?
Never ceases to amaze me at the large numbers of believers who claim to know what god wants and thinks. God's wishes tend to coincide exactly with the wishes, fears and prejudices of the person making the idiotic claim.
Why idiotic? So far no one has ever managed to demonstrate that god (any god) exists or does not.
Another view is that the Abrahamic god has several infinite attributes. As such, we would be less than fleas on a dog to he/she/it/ they.. We would have far less luck communicating with him than those fleas with their dog . The dog also gives far more the the fleas than any god has ever been shown to give human beings. Makes perfect sense to me, what with god(s) probably not existing and all.
