From a Pascal's Wager type perspective, I see rational value in religion. But personally, I have a hard time reconciling a God great enough to create the universe with one petty enough to demand to be worshipped or who cares about anyone's sex life.

Yeah, I get the point you're trying to make; it's rather facile. Even biology alone doesn't account for the massive differences in optimal strategies even in the modern world, much less over time. Humans are not as simple as the motion of planets.

No, and yet the religious rules that have survived are superior ways to conduct your sex life when measured by human flourishing when compared to the modern sexual mores which result in extinction of the genetic lines of those intelligent enough to follow them.
