Ok, i want serious answers, I'm not trying to bicker or start fights or try to "prove you guys wrong", i just want to know your stance on my question.



Why did God give us animal instincts and tendencies if he didn't want us to use them in that way? (i.e. sexuality) can't think clearly now, i'll post again if someone answers.

Well, he needs a reason to send us to Hell, doesn't he?

Of course He wants us to use them. God's gifts are not to be ignored, ridiculed or be-littled. But one of those gifts is logic and free will that help man build a society that's not a jungle (well, not entirely succesful on that yet!) where everyone is slave to his insticts. Instincts (sexuality/desire) are good but they're just the initial spark for higher feelings (love).
