Does God have a physical image? and how much does He look like me?

I was implying that the bones that fallible man finds burried in the earth are catorgorized and labeled because of their presupposed imagination of what fallible man wants them to be . There is, and always will be controversay or different stories to what they really are.The stories will ALWAYS be filled with would have, could have and might be's. They are in fact , either ape, monkey, lemur or human. Man however is the only one of these that was created after God's image. Image in this sense not neccessarly meaning looks like.
No, I've never asked Him. What's your opinion on the subject?In your conversations with Him, brother in Christ, have you asked Him?
Surely you've asked Him, since He tells us that He created man in His image?

You haven't asked the One Who states HE made man in HIs image, the Author of all that was created? The One Who breathed His breath of life into man, who was created in His image?
Why not?
Therefore it is "possible" that the ark existed, until it is dis-proven?
At least you recognise you have a problem.I was implying that the bones that fallible man finds burried in the earth are catorgorized and labeled because of their presupposed imagination of what fallible man wants them to be...

Because I don't believe God has a physical image, so I'm not going to go asking Him if His physical image looks like me.
Why have you dodged my question?
According to science, and other physical evidence (fossils, breeding grounds,ect.) Science has come to the conclusion these are our closest relatives (in evolution, Homo sapien-modern man, and Homo hablis- closest to our modern form)
But since there is this evidence, I am so confused
Ive grown up in the church, and have experienced our perfect God in so many ways.
How can I break down this evidence as truth, and still serve a God who created the whole world in 7 days?
I just see conflict and want to find resolution within my own faith in order to serve God, this is a huge stumbling block for me recently since studying this in a secular university.
If my questions arent clear please inform me and I will try to rewrite them. Thanks again!
Can you explain Doverman and Superman in the same biblical context as recorded in scripture without trying to be funny?Does not follow. I could speak of Doveaman and Superman in the same context, but that doesn't make Superman real just because you are.
I’m sure there are many others who don’t know much about it but accept it on the basis of faith in the words of scientists.I'm not terribly interested in the Big Bang, otherwise I would have gone out of my way to educate myself on the subject. I don't argue the subject on this forum because I know I don't know much about it.
It doesn’t matter since you don’t know the subject.That isn't an explanation, that's hand waving. An explanation would include the reason why the astronomers think these things shouldn't exist.
Then Adam was literal, the flood happened, and Jesus walked on water.Again, no. A lack of evidence does not falsify anything, I've been quite clear on this.
Science involves logic, reason, imagination, and common sense. I have them all.Take my word for it, Doveaman, you are very far from being educated about science.
How is the flood falsified?Science looks for things to falsify theories.
The "Jesus walking on water" hypothesis is falsified because the evidence suggests water cannot be walk on by a man, he would sink."The Peter Cushing Hypothesis (great band name, btw) is falsified because the evidence suggests he didn't babysit me."
Can you empirically verify “divine”?The Jesus hypothesis includes the fact that he was divine.
Can you empirically verify that Jesus was not a normal human being?A normal human being cannot walk on water, but a divine one may be able to, so the fact that normal human beings can't walk on water does not falsify this hypothesis.
Weather Adam was literal or allegorical is a theological issue, not a scientific one, but, yet, you are using science (evolution) to deny he was literal. I am tempted to think there is a double standard going on here.This is theology. If you'd like to discuss it further please make a thread here and I'd love to answer it for you.
This forum is for discussions relating to science.
Time is irrelevant. The evidence you gave can be applied to Muhammad or John the Baptist.He lived 600 years later.
What evidence do you have that led you to become a Christian?Of course not. You asked what evidence I have that Jesus rose from the dead, not why am I a Christian.
Chris Angel was much better than Peter when it comes to walking of water.I actually forgot about Peter.
Actually, not only is there no evidence that the flood did happen, essentially all of sedimentology provides evidence that the flood did NOT happen.the flood happened
