Consider this allegory: Someone finds a diary, and a passage describes that a body was dumped in the dessert. Is it real, or is it fiction? A team goes out to the dessert and indeed finds the body, which corroborates what's written in the diary. Sapient intelligence represents that body. It corroborates the bible's claim that man was created in the image of God, and that animals are inferior.
This is circular reasoning at its best.
The bible was written by men, of course it's going to claim that man is gods favorite.
How is our intelligence corroboration of us saying we are gods chosen?
