It really is quite simple... either this is not his only 'experiment', and humans are no more special in his eyes than are rocks... or he is taking someone else's creations and adding his own little 'twist' to them. This is a leftover part of the bible from when it was polytheistic... or else it is just some of the usual biblical bullshit.
I see. The word "after" has other meanings...like "10. according to the nature of; in conformity with; in agreement or unison with: He was a man after my own heart. He swore after the manner of his faith." (Obtained from Dictionary.com). Try plugging that meaning in and I think it will make more sense.

You have yet to bring forth any specific observations to discuss and see whether or not they are necessarily inconsistent with the Bible. If you do not want to discuss anything, that is fine, but so far you have only brought conclusions based on your own presuppositions.
