I think you can be a creationist and still agree that evolution explains our sex drives much better than the Bible. What makes us horny? Natural selection or God/Satan? HOw do we have freewill over what makes us hrony? Because that would make dating easier.

Are the creationists in for a shock when they realize libido DROVE evolution.
Go check out the penis length of a gorilla and a human male the same height. Length is NOT needed for survival of the species. The drive for pleasure has driven evolution since day one of big bang.

However, creationism is a religious stance. , But intelligent design is not. Creationism is a term defined by specific religious groups that promote the idea that God created either the earth or the universe in 6 24-hour days. The Bible, however, uses the word "day" to described fixed or unspecified time periods of varying lengths. Genesis 1:5, Genesis 2:4, 2 Peter 3:8 So your Google search for science papers on creationism will likely not yield results. A canvass of the history of scientific advances reveal that a lot of people who present scientific evidence in papers are initially maligned and ridiculed by scientists who want to maintain the status quo However, college educated scientists with degrees in relevant subjects have submitted papers on the subject of the validity of creation, that is, the idea that the universe displays evidence of intelligent design. You will not find many of them in the major science journals, because often there is a policy against accepting papers that present such an idea in a positive manner, despite the meticulous use of the scientific method in the research. So while creationism is a religious stance, evolution comes from a non scientific world view. You may call it materialism, or naturalism, but the bottom line is it is initially agreed upon among authoritative science circles not to follow the science when it leads to intelligent design. It is true that most great scientists in history believed that the earth was created. It is also true that the modern scientist accepts that the universe had a beginning. It is also true that an alternate cause of the universe is intelligent rather than a mindless force. There is nothing unreasonable about these facts, Therefore, a scientist can believe that the universe was created by an intelligent being outside of time and space, without denying science. Real science is nothing more than an unbiased structured inquiry. The scientist must follow the inquiry, and the logic. If someone insisted (as many scientific research authorities do) that you can follow the scientific method, the evidence and the logic unless it leads to God, then it is no longer science.

Obviously.
And it explains a whole lot more than that.
Learning the ways of behavioural evolution has effectively enlightened me as to how all human behaviour in some form or other falls into three categories:
#1. That which leads directly to more offspring.
#2. That which leads directly to personal persistence (i.e. living longer), which indirectly leads to more offspring.
#3. That which doesn't particularly lead anywhere at all, and is an accidental biproduct of features which fit into the other two categories.
In other words..... all human action is for the sake of more sex, living longer.... and time-wasting.
Religion doesn't really account for that.

Well, procreation is needed if you're to survive as a species. A species with a low sex drive would most likely die out.
Evolution makes sense!

Evolution offers a more elegant explanation for everything biological.

Weeeelllll...God spoke to Adam and Eve and said unto them and the animals of Eden, "Go forth and multiply."
Now I don't know if I really believe that literally, but it is our default setting. And pretty much everything we do leads back to that.
Hell, ask someone else, I don't know.
