Duh, it is hormones developed over millions of years of evolution.

Those hormones have always been there. Has absolutely nothing to do with evolution.

“They are not treating them as fully three dimensional humans.”

Well, it is a picture isn't it, not a human. If is was a picture of a hamburger I would have to treat it as a two dimensional object.

No. Adam and Eve originally had NO hormones.

That seems to be a rather silly statement; so what do you base such a claim? I gather you weren't there.

Great news! Now the fem-hags can’t slam us for hard-wired behavior we have no conscious control over, any more than we are supposed to criticize homosexuals because “they were born that way”.

Fiske’s team put straight men into an MRI brain scanner and showed them images of either clothed men and women, or more scantily clad men and women. When they took a memory test afterwards, the men best remembered images of bikini-clad women whose heads had been digitally removed.”

OK, their heads were "digitally removed", and someone is surprised that they're the ones best remembered?

That they're thought of as "not completely human" ??

Do the same study with women and scantily clad men - do the results look similar?

Men really do see half naked women as ‘objects’, scientists claim (Nudeology).

Even more fixed.

From your link:
Researchers used brain scans to show that when straight men looked at pictures of women in bikinis, areas of the brain that normally light up in anticipation of using tools, like spanners and screwdrivers, were activated.

I am not sure I want to think too much about that!

How are they determining what constitutes treatment as a fully three dimensional human?
The basic premise is flawed if they can’t define their terms, I don’t think they can define such a nebulous concept.

The Bible makes no mention of an apple.

You might also want to read Song of Solomon. Think God didn't create man (males and females) with a desire for sex?

Genesis 1: 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

28 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."

Clearly, God created man with the desire for sex. Also, there is no reproductive purpose for a woman's orgasm, orther than for emotional/spiriatual bonding, and pleasure, with her husband. A woman's clitoris cannot be explained by evolutionists if evolution were true.

From what I read, you think God has sexual desires?
