That's not for you to decide though.

And a good thing too! The reason why it would not have happened (if you're asking me which you seem to be doing) is He created us in His own image.

It's unlike you to be as opressive that, and I'm very surprised. Surely greater understanding of the bible and connected beliefs then there would be no problem. And that understanding should take place on
