This is where your theist will say "mankind cannot create something as complex" (except for the exceptionally stupid ones who just blame our bodily failures on sin), but that just avoids the huge issue that flaws of any kind should be considered entirely unacceptable when the creator holds such pretensions as "all-knowing" and "all-powerful".
So tell us, what a superior design for man would be.

And I guess if asked you do. Now how wonderfully funny is that, tell us what is it we do not know that you do know, please give specifics.

Give me a break! Your god has no mortal body. Even if there were such thing as god, it would not be an old man (woman) sitting up in the clouds shaking it's head and wagging it's finger. The limitations of such a being would be that of a man.
Your god would consist of 'being', 'awareness' and 'soul'.
I did not say God has a body, scripture tells us He is spirit, I've already made this point, you should read the comments of others before posting. Christ who is part of the Truine Godhead now has a physical body and it is immortal, so in that since you are wrong. My whole point is this, we were created as a triune being, making us like God in the fact He's triune.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Drich, the reason people have to try to clarify exactly what position you are arguing is simply because you are unclear. For the sake of clarity please answer the following two questions in a direct way:
A) when god, at the time of the creation, made Adam in his image, does that mean god at that time had nipples?
B) if yes, well why does god have nipples?

I did read, you make no sense. If god has no body, then how is the body of man "in his image"?
So, christ is running around in heaven with a mortal body? Get serious. Of what use is a body for those in heaven?
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

If you read you pay no attention to what others say, in my last reply I stated as scripture does, Christ's body is immortal.
Does scriptures say God made man's body in His image, or does it simply say man, because man is more than a body.

Then how come the Romans killed him when they nailed his sorry ass to a cross? ( Assuming for the sake of argument that that part of your fairy tale is any more factual than the rest of it.)

Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
And if you will note, it does not say that we were made in god's image, it says we were made in their image. (whoever they were). It says nothing about the body. I can bring other verses, but I feel no need to enlighten your delusion. Again, I am an atheist. I do not consider this anymore valid than any other faerie tale.

They are what I've been telling you about, the triune Godhead, that means three, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
We are body, spirit, and soul, we are three just as the Godhead is three.
They are three yet one God and we are three yet one person.
As I said, scripture says God created the whole man, it says nothing about creating man's body like God.
