That evolution is the process of creation, and so creation is done through the process of elemental and consequent biological evolution.
Not bingo. Eve was not made that way nor Adam. Gong.Bingo.
How do you explain man being created in God's image?Bingo.
Man is a spiritual being made in God's image.It's a job description, not a scientific account of how we got here.
How do you explain man being created in God's image?
I'm not talking about a physical image, and the verse isn't talking about a physical image.That's a good question. First, if God actually had a body, it wouldn't be beyond His powers to use "time and chance" along with necessity, to create us in His physical image. (which He doesn't have)
Jesus tells us that God is a spirit and He says a spirit has no body. The "image" is in our minds and immortal souls.
I'm not talking about a physical image, and the verse isn't talking about a physical image.
When was man's soul made in the image and likeness of God?
Neanderthal DNA has been found in modern man. Was Neanderthal man made in God's image?
We don't know when this gift was given by God; my guess is that it was before H. sapiens divided into subspecies. So yes, I think Neandertals were also made in God's image.
That's some nicely incomplete, cherry picked quoting. The truth is there for all to see. Even a fellow creationist who I very rarely see eye-to-eye with backed me up. You were refuted, you don't like it and you would rather lie than admit it.↑
Bungle:>>Priceless. "Their kind" and "his kind" are refering to incarnations of god, but "her kind" refers to female birds?
Aman:>>No. You are confused. You looked up "her kind" looking for a reference to God being female and got the heron "her kind". Your faux confusion is refuted.

Bungle:>>Let's just agree I've refuted your nonsense.
Aman:>>In your dreams. I post of God's Truth which agrees with every other discovered Truth of mankind. Faith plus Fact equals an un-refutable Truth.
Lately, someone has been posting that they refuted me or proved me wrong Scripturally. Not so.
I was suggesting you reconsider what "made in God's image" means. I find the argument persuasive that it means primarily a vocation, to serve as God's representative, rather than being a statement about our nature. See J. Richard Middleton's The Liberating Image for evidence (Biblical and ANE) supporting this understanding of the image of God.Man is a spiritual being made in God's image.
Neandertals predate Homo Sapiens by a considerable margin in time. There are also no subspecies of Homo Sapiens.
We don't know when this gift was given by God; .
No. Evolution was a "what if" when it was first thought of. Then scientists considered the evidence and concluded that it had happened.
It was an ape that lived about 7 million years ago.
Since we're not living 7 million years ago, I don't know how I'm supposed to point you to it.
What does this have to do with the evidence we're talking about?
I don't know what that means. What trend does it assume?
Yes. Are you aware that your question has nothing to do with what you quoted?
Because we see the same pattern in differences between humans and chimps as between two humans.
We know the latter is caused by mutation.
If you have an alternative explanation for why we see the same pattern, by all means offer it.
This is a pattern:
This is the same pattern:
Do the two figures really not look similar to you?
I'm sorry. I was under the impression you wanted to discuss the evidence.
You show no sign of having understood what the evidence is,
much less engaged with it in a meaningful way.
We can move on to another piece of evidence when you've dealt with this one.
Now, the question is simple: why do the two patterns of genetic difference look so similar?
Has evolution been observed?
Please provide an example and not just a statement my friend.
