If your monkey eyes can see well enough for you to type you should also be able to read. As for having comprehension skills... that's another trick you'll have to learn. Practice, practice, practice.

Every word has two meanings, literal and semantic. Here "God made man in his Image" means different if we see it semantically. Actually it means that God has given us his image in the sense that he has given us wisdom, knowledge and power of thinking. Man differs from other creatures because of these abilities. All animals have nose, ears and eyes etc, infact, some of them have more powerful senses than a normal human being, some of them are more powerful than human. Its man's wisdom and knowledge that makes him most powerful creation of God.
Human is image of God due to his knowledge.

It isn't a physical image. It is the spirit the conscience. He uses man's mouth and ears and hands to preach and teach the Word of God. And there is nothing said about sex organ.

God made man in his IMAGE, not exactly as himself. Image by definition is "A reproduction of the form of a person or object, especially a sculptured likeness." an image doesnt have to be something exact, just similar. hope that helps clear things up?
God Bless

Christians will say that what is really meant is that god created man in the same spirit as him but even that is a load of hogwash. If we have a similar spirit and we are sinful beings, than god must be, too. If he's not, then he clearly didn't create us in the same image now did he? NO!

Has any of you consider that Man look like God with mouth and nose?
Why does god has to be just a being???

He made man in his image, not in his exact likeness. God is a unique being. He could not create a being as powerful or special as himself.

Nose: For breathing in space.
Mouth: For eating asteroids
Anus: For producing Qurans from Muslims to read.
Hands: For creating one Islamic earthquake after another...over and over and over...cause he loves Muslims.

Moses told us God created man in his image, so we would feel godly and above the animals and our earthly existence.
I don't believe it...but that's my best guess.
