Why did God make the desire to have sex so strong?
And then say to not do it unless you're married. What about the people who never get married for whatever reason? Or their spouse leaves them, or dies, or becomes unable to have sex. Why are they supposed to be denied this pleasure that they naturally desire?
If God created us, he did give us the desire.
Marriage doesn't always ensure that children are brought up in the best environment
Sex outside of marriage doesn't have to be promiscuous.
Married people get to have sex for fun.....not just to have children.

The desire is there so that we'll continue to reproduce. It's basic biology.
As far as the being married part, that's a way to ensure that children are brought up in an environment where their needs are provided for. The misuse of sex leads to some of the most broken states of being imaginable. Marriage is just a way of holding sex as sacred and something not to be trifled with; it's a recognition of the true spiritual power that sex has.
I don't condemn people who have sex outside of marriage, but I do hope that they are responsible about it.
Peace to you.

Eating is also a God given desire, but look what happens when our eating habits become twisted.Its the same with sex.When we twist and pervert something that has been given to us by God, satan takes over and destroys something that was intended to be good.
I do not mean to sound rude but are you so blind that you cannot see what promiscuous sexual activities have done?

Then they should stay virgins.
The desire to have sex can be controlled.
"Why are they supposed to be denied this pleasure that they naturally desire?"

You got it with your second to last word. It's nature that creates sex drive. No gods needed.
