Which brand of genitalia does it have? Who is your god's lover? Do they smoke a cig and drink a glass of wine afterwards? Could your god be gay? That could explain why he valued men at 50 shekels and women only 35.
God made mankind in His own image to love and be loved. HalleluYah !!! Praise the Lord!

19 May '12 22:12Originally posted by RJHindsSo his spirit looks like mankind? Why would it select mankind as a model? There must be millions of alien civilizations in the universe, some of them undoubtedly more advanced than humans. Why wouldn't it have used them as a model? Also, why would an infinite god NEED to look like mankind in the first place? That implies we are the crown of creation, but really just an arrogant theists making up tales again and again and again.

19 May '12 23:04Originally posted by sonhouseI think we are to be the crown of God's creation when it is all finished. The Holy Bible says that we Christians will judge the angels of God.

20 May '12 21:15Originally posted by RJHindsThat is part of it. What I am talking about is mankind thinking they can have a god modeled from themselves, which is preposterous on the face of it. You say your god modeled man after his spiritual self. Actually, it's the other way round.
I think you mean anthropocentrism.
