(February 17, 2014 at 1:29 pm)Sword of Christ Wrote: The important difference here is that God made us in his image we didn't make God in our image seeing as God isn't depicted like this.God is depicted like that. He is depicted "walking around" and "making clothes" (Gen 3:8,21). He threatens to "hide his face" from the nation of Israel (Deu 31:17). He has hands (Amos 9:2), eyes (Amos 9:4), ears (Num 11:18), feet (Nah 1:3)... you can find a verse for almost every part of god's body. He acts and reacts the way humans do. His angels take on human or humanoid forms and do human things.
Trying to argue that Yahweh is different from other gods because he's invisible is hysterical. It's also dumb. And also wrong.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
