Do I understand by what you are saying, you do not believe that man is created in God's image?

Jan how would you like to rather than make broad general brushes of philosophical reasons for religion and why you think people created God rather than the other way around; give us evidence and scientific reasoning which is what this forum is actually meant for?

What evidence convinces you that man is ape?
yes I'm with you on this one .
Last I checked I can trace to ancestors with two rows of teeth built to chew forever , and probably the even replacing loose teeth. because there is never found any teeth missing in their heads. Now the ones just 1600 years ago or so were head shaping thus putting pressure on the pituitary and simulating man and all creations distant past and for those same reason why all creation was once all
"giants" and not other species or demons either. .
and I can proved to myself my ancestors they had 6 fingers and toes because they were created on the 6th day not the 5th day like beasts of the fields.
Now if there is any properties in common with monkeys it is happening now and since 3 to 4 thousand years ago . because mankind has de - evolved from a 6thday creation to a 5 day creation( or beast of the fields ) and it appears they also have developed a mind of a ape also since 6000 years ago .. and any of those bones they claim as human ancestors are wishful thinking or just a lot of lies and lots putty from men who have lost who they are and were meant to be.

so I'm with you on the fact that man has never been an ape and the closest thing to an ape man has ever been are people now. and any evolution that has been is only DE- evolution and that started about 5555 years ago..

I am not well versed in your position but agreement is always a good start.

Man created God so man obviously made his God look like a man, what better way for man to elevate himself to be more than a mere mortal?

To be "created" in God's Image is to be created Spiritually in Christ. God is an invisible Spirit and exists in form ONLY in Christ Who IS the Image of the invisible Spirit of God. Col 1:15

This process involves the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Gen 1:26 AND John 14:16 When Adam was "formed" from the dust of the ground, he was NOT created by the Trinity, Spiritually. He was formed by the Hands of Jesus (LORD God) on the 3rd Day Gen 2:4-7 and was "CREATED" Spiritually by the Trinity (God) on the 6th Day. Gen 1:27 and Gen 5:1-2

Like ALL men, Adam was first "formed" and later "created" in Christ by his Faith which is a Gift of God.

1Co 15:46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.

Amen?

False. That is what evidence we do have. To use conjecture to determine what could have been before is just that conjecture.

Nothing you have said refutes the facts. All of the evidence we do have is consistent with evolution.


Your claims require that life be complex from the very start which is just a conjecture.

You DO realize that the men inspired by the Holy Spirit to write the Bible were limited, but God ISN'T, right?

So claims a limited human. Are you perfect? If not, then it would seem that we must reject your claims according to your criteria.

You certainly are entitled to your opinion. And yes, EVERYONE that is a child of the Most High God is "limited." It is written that in our weakness, God's power is more manifested. For it is clearly HIS power that is evidenced, and not ours.

So claims a limited human. Why should we believe you?

You shouldn't. You should look at the evidence yourself.

That's the thing about evolution. It is based on verifiable evidence that is independent of any human assertions, unlike religion.

Reality is not limited by what you are able to understand or not understand. Also, I have a strange suspicion that you don't want it to make sense.

it never made any sense even when i was a kid......

seriously, it was hard to believe ANYONE would put such credence in evolution....

incredulous.

LOL!
