Can't accept that answer. We are supposedly created in god's image and so our image is that of god's is it not? So I ask again, why would god have an image (phyisical or not). What purpose does it serve god to have an image? Also why have any image at all if none can see it? The purpose behind it may either be 1. There is no purpose and is completely devoid of meaning or 2. God does not exist and so an image of him would be impossible. or 3. Theists need to maintain gods invisibility and so dodge questions that ask what I have asked, "what is the purpose for god to bare an image?".
God is supposedly beyond any detection for which includes sight, sound and touch. Then to say an image of him exists afterwards is just confusing and strange. God has an image(supposedly) yet none can see it. What is the purpose of it? Why would an all perfect god behave in such an inperfect way? Maybe it's because it's us who controls god and not the other way round. Which would explain all the strange and meaningless behaviour from him. He is our creation and we are far from perfect. I think that says it all doesn't it.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
