God Created Sex

God created sex for three basic reasons: reproduction, pleasure, and intimacy. This simple formula is the story of Nature.

In principle, the sole occupation of any creature is to renew, by the sex act, the life God gave it. This act is so clearly the unique and definite aim that it constitutes the entire life cycle of many animals.
Sponges and sea anemones produce little ones via buds. Flatworms, if cut in two, grow a new head on one of their severed ends and a new tail on the other. These are handy and powerful ways to produce prodigy. For one thing, there's no need for a partner -- no butting of horns, no beating of the chest, no blind dates. Reproduction is virtually guaranteed and the offspring are exact clones.
