I think one day we all will be surprised to learn how literal the Bible is. I believe God created man in his own image. To believe humans evolved from lesser beings is to believe humans are not the children of God.

"For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring." Acts 17:28

In your opinion. Not in mine.

This was started as a science thread.

Do you have anything scientific to contribute?

IIRC, it was “God created man in “their own” image.”

Unless “god” is the name of some gene splitting bio-tech corporation, there is a “possessive” problem in the sentence ( or at least the translation.)

That is the problem when one relies on the words of middle-ages writers working on hebrew and greek texts for a British King....but I digress,
