What separates us from “the beasts of the field” is our ability . . .
to think things through
before we do
One might make such an observation from any vantage point. It does seem to me, though, that the idea of lust being the “Creator’s way” of ensuring reproduction is Biblically problematical. Certainly it is not spoken of directly. The gist is that Adam and Eve presumably partook of this lust innocently, much as animals, and it was only with their rebellion that they came to know what a dirty deed it was.
Well, the whole subject is fraught with problems from any point of view, and we might suppose that the Biblical account is an expression of this. We might even suppose that that is its genius.
