That everything else you claim he created is secondary and only there for you. Only you will have eternal life? Why not fish, or anything else he "created"?

Horribly arrogant. This is also why so many Christians have rejected evolution. If god didn't really make us as we are today, and we are really just smart animals, then who is to say we are still special. Really, evolution undermines the entire concept of the Christian god.

It does sound arrogant to say that we are special and above the rest of God's creation. However, it is true. God placed us above the rest of his creation to take care of it. Yes, the plants and animals were placed here for our use, put we were also placed here to care for it. To harvest and feed the plants and animals. We have been given a great responsibility as God's stewards.
God says himself that the believers will judge the angels.
The rest of God's creation does give us pleasure, but ultimatly it was created for God, not for us. God created things to please himself or to serve a purpose. Sometimes that purpose, as in a cow, is to feed his people.
There are also numerous places in the Bible where it is clear that people are the only beings to have a soul.
I hhope this helps. If you have any more questions or need details please let me know.
God bless,

Because only man has an eternal soul and only man is made in the image of God

You think it's arrogant only because you don't believe God created such a complex world.

it's not really arrogant. the bibile says that we have been given dominion over creation. so why would we believe that there is a god, if we don't believe what he says? they go hand in hand, how could you believe one part but not another? that would be hypocritical.

The fallicy is not realizing that all God's creations are special.
