“This may come as a shock to you, but it seems Christ expected humans to behave differently from animals.”
There you go moving the goalposts again. You tried “Christ said” first, then switched to “Natural Law”, and now you’re running back to “Christ expected”.
I guess it’s tough to pick an argument and stick to it when you keep making bad arguments.
“Also, social creatures have mechanisms for optimizing reproductive fitness - which precludes “humping anything they can corner”.”
Almost all creatures balance the benefits of seeking the best mate and reproducing as often as possible, and it is generally the female that is selective, while the male is driven biologically to reproduce with as many partners as possible. There are rare exceptions, but they are exceptions, not the rule.
>>You tried “Christ said” first, then switched to “Natural Law”,
Christ, the temporal incarnation of the Creator of the Universe.
That Christ?
Who do you think defined Natural Law?
>>Almost all creatures balance the benefits of seeking the best mate and reproducing as often as possible
Actually what they balance is relative fitness of reproductive strategies.
The reproductive strategy of higher primates is governed by social structure - with a social investment of reproductive resources in offspring.
Quite amusing to observe the females in a troupe of Western Lowlands Gorillas alert the silver back when an adolescent male is attempting to dip his wick without permission.
In the context of the social order prescribed for humanity, it’s not surprising you’re unable/unwilling to articulate the difference between permission and forgiveness.
