And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:
Who exactly is the "us" in this passage?
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.
What would man want with most creatures on this earth apart from the odd edible ones? Never understood that line.
So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
So is God male/female/shemale? What does a God eat? Does God poo? Really ... I'm being serious here.
That quote from the bible is exactly what we see in our world, man who has dominion over the animals, and male and female sex (humans and animals).
That quote is a man-made explanation for what we see, not the reason for what we see. And I'd like to see you practice your dominion over a pack of lions - they'd soon show you where you fit on the food chain.
How it is believed that ToE could ever produce male and female and so perfectly and consistently, is a question I would like answered.
Define perfection. Explain the Seahorse.
Consistency? As in the similarity between reproductive mechanisms of humans to other primates, and all other mammals? It's questions like these that brought about the ToE in the first place. You're on the right track sonnike.

S: The "us" is the Trinity: Father, Son & Holy Spirit.
Does the Bible not state all 3 are God, and God is one. Schizophrenia?
S: It's just saying that we are NOT animals.
No, it says humans have dominion over all other creatures. Differentiation, and dominion are not the same.
S: Read the bible.
I have. I would like your take on this point.
S: Except I CAN dominate them with means they don't have.
Such as...?
S: eg. man and woman, perfect fit in sex, designed for each other, designed to be together.
I'm not an expert on seahorses.

And I can just as easily say 'evolved to fit, evolved to work'. What makes your argument stronger?
Male seahorses give birth, not the female. It was a point against consistency.
S: Sorry, it was rejection of God that brought about ToE...you're on the wrong track.
ToE was a conclusion made by the study of fact. You know, there are more Christian evolutionists than atheist evos?
Personally, I never rejected the Bible as I never got sucked in by it in the first place.
