the real question deisel is are you taking it literally?

we are in the image of the universe. we are working the way it allows us to work. By understanding how we work, I mean everything, we understand how the universe works.,

The same would be for a god that is everything we see.

That is what is meant by the Bible is to be interpreted spiritually not carnally.
So Neanderthal did the same exact things as ancient Homo sapiens but the only difference was they weren’t spiritual and that makes them an animal? Got it. Where do you get your insane beliefs from?

the answer to the title is simple.

if we are using science data to form a belief than that data and the belief become the same thing.

The periodic table is a picture of god, just like a picture of you is you.

so yes, the Neanderthals are exactly in its image too.

if Neanderthals had some of the behaviors that we do then they are in its image as much as we are. The classification of the body isn't really the point.

heck, if we pretend that they were more kind to each other and the life forms around them than we are we could say they are closer to its image than we are.

I guess you simply will not give up your pig-headed view of my speculations. Any hominid (dust of the earth) that had the same spiritual characteristics that we homo sapiens sapiens do were essentially human. Where do you get your pig-headedness from? This IS a religion and SPIRITUALITY forum so why the focus on the physical and the refusal to engage with the spiritual aspects.

Lol. Yes, I’m pig headed with someone that just makes things up along as they go. As you said on your end it’s purely speculation with no rational thought given.

he has point deisel.

if Neanderthals had similar behaviors then they are in gods image as much as we are.

I don't know why you are so against that notion.

I said no such thing, Diesel, there is plenty of science and rational thought involved in my views, speculative or not.

The image of God is a Spirit, where Neanderthals were created by God but never made it Just like the animals of the earth were not created in the image of God .... Where Adam and Eve were created with a soul and spirit which is the image of God ...... The image of God is not a physical image but a spiritual image with a soul

Fabre d'Olivet , translation of Genesis 1 creation was in principal only, as a plan. Nachmanides explains in a similar way. Gen. 1 speaks about humanity in general.
