As social/political/psychological metaphor, "God" is unnecessary and conveys the wrong idea. I would accept that God can be such a metaphor, but I don't know that such a metaphor is a great idea.
And then, if God made us in his image, why did he just happen to make us apes? Did he make us in his image or did we make him in ours? Do other species do this too, or is that just good ol' human narcissism?

Once you understand how the system works then you can understand about the apes the humans and everything else.
God didn't create apes or humans in the first place.
He create space, air, light-energy, water and matter.
From these forms of energy more evolved life came into existence that is vegetable life, animal life and human life.
Like a boomerang well throw all this energy come back to him.
It is all about mighty consciousness that is transformed into small consciousness that again get transformed into mighty consciousness.
God lila game so to speak.
