I still don't get some Christian beliefs.

God created Adam & Eve with the ability to procreate. This was his chosen way for animal and human species to reproduce. He created us all with the DNA to be able to procreate.
Sex (apart from being for human enjoyment in a married relationship) is a way of transferring DNA from a sperm to an egg thus forming a foetus.

Well, asexual reproduction would make things awful lonely, dont you think?
Lol
Actually, like most everything else God created, man was created and made so it was self-renewing. Just as it is that not every deer, or jackal, or lion or whatever animal, gets to reproduce, so it is with man. By creating us so that we would have to seek each other out, and by giving us survival instincts, we are assured that only the strongest of the species are attracted by and to others. This ensured the survival of the species of Man by ensuring the strongest of genetics gets passed along.
In actuality, there are only 3 places where it specifically states in scripture that God created a human being: Adam, Eve, and Jesus. While I am a creationist, and not an evolutionist, I do believe in evolutionary creationism otherwise known as ADAPTATION. That is to say, all things were created by God, for God, to populate the Earth. However, as man spread out to other regions of the earth with different climates, they adapted to those regions and adapted with the food sources (nutrient possibilities), weather and temperature conditions, etc that went along with them.
Think about this, as well...
Say that you are God... and you create something that you want to spread out over the surface of a planet you just created. Would you not give it a way to be self-sustaining, too?
Hope this helps...

Are you serious? God created the male body and the female body when joined together to make a child. That union makes the child unique to those particular parents, who hopefully joined in love. Together, they would make a family - with a male role model and a female role model. Both are essential to the good healthy development of the child.
God displays alot of wisdom in the fact that in order to have a child there needs to be both man and woman together.
Thats a very good lesson to those who think its okay to have two daddies or two mommies. Its a bad idea, even religion aside, its a bad idea, because it is not a good balanced upbringing for a child.
This is common sense and nature here. Do you think Muslim folks think Allah just isn't quite as powerful as they once thought, because after all we still need to have sex to get pregnant?
You can't possibly be serious asking this question. It borders on the ridiculous.

To start, I believe the bible is demonic, not divine, but I also believe that sex between two loving people will only bring more love into the world, and then the child will have a better chance of being loved, where if a woman is violently raped the child can many times be a reminder of the pain the mother went through during the event.
When you look around, I believe you will see more children of loving relationships (even if the parents divorced or separated, there was love at conception) than children of rape and violence.

When a husband impregnates his wife with his seed, God takes over and makes the seed grow inside of the wife's body and this is a miracle! When you plant a seed in the ground, that seed grows into something, whether it be a flower or something else!
God made man and woman to unite in marriage and have sex. Only Blessed Mary was a virgin when she was pregnant with Jesus and this was a miracle from God!

God doesn't create things. He may have created the universe, but it unfolds according to the laws of the world, which he presumably created too.
Most Christians don't say that things have been created by God, other than that he created the whole universe.

God is Everything. All are lessons to be learned. We are to learn to become Godly. That is the purpose of Creation.
We have free will like God to choose what to do with our lives what to expose ourselves to etc. We have free will so that we get experiences and thereby learn what is the Godly way to go.
The experiences and what we do bring forth fruits that we can look at and estimate if they are good or bad. How to improve etc.

God wants us to partner with Him in every aspect of life and that includes creating life. He does not need our help - He wants to share everything with us. He desires fellowship with us so He allows us to take part in everything He is about in order to build a relationship and He expects us to do the same. Christianity is simply a relationship with God made possible by the work of Jesus.

Because that's how God get things done. Not everything God does are unexplainable or in the area of miracles. Some can be explained in Science, some are fictions, and some remains under the confinement of miracles.

Mortals are just spinning their wheels to try and second guess God. God is, and His creation is. How things happen are for God to order.
