It’s in the Code Ep 127: “The Purpose of Sex (Part 3)?” (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast) (It's in the Code, Episode #127)

In this episode, Dan takes on the “design argument” that the purpose of human sex is procreation. 

Here’s how the argument goes: If God created human beings, and therefore human sexuality, this means that the purpose of sex is procreation, because this is God’s intended purpose. 

But does the argument work? 

Dan argues that even if we presuppose human beings and their sexuality as a direct creation of God, the idea that the purpose of sex is procreation is STILL not compelling. 

Human sexuality is so ineffective at bringing about procreation that it is implausible to suggest that this is its “design.” Check out this week’s episode to hear more!
