Let US make man in OUR image?

Sheesh. You people. Have you not heard of the royal "we"? From wiki...The majestic plural (pluralis maiestatis/majestatis in Latin) is the use of a plural pronoun to refer to a single person holding a high office....

To take that verse and try to establish doctrine is a violation of hermeneutical principals. One uses clear passages to shed light on the not-so-clear. Otherwise, using YOUR logic, the us could be 4, 5, 5,000...why stop at 3?

I just posted #293, showing about 30 verses where G-d clearly states His Oneness, His solitude, Singularity. And you want to make doctrine off one verse?
