of God's teeth if not to eat food and tongue if not to taste food and nose if not to smell food and lungs if not to breathe air and so on... all animal and particularly mammal attributes?
If you think this question is nonsense... go back and read the books again.
If you don't believe that God made man in his image ... which part of the Bible DO YOU BELIEVE?
Do you have a totally different meaning of the words believe and truth than I do?
Are you nuts, why would the original being ,,, omni-everything look like us? It DOES say that He looks like us, right? Or is this some mystical magical mushroom thing whereby children can be sucked in?
Apparently He can mate with us.. Mary for example... or is THAT just symbolism too? HE, apparently, has all the parts needed to be a mammal, a human being, what in the universe is special about a mouth, a gut, two arms, two legs and a dingaling? Special to us... but not to the creator of the universe surely?

the Bible's creation story is similar to other creatin stories and shouldn't be interpreted literally
in my opinion

It say's we were made in his image. It does not say replica or exact. How do you know that God does not breathe anyway. Or that he eats for that matter? Personally I think heaven will have the best food around. Who am I to question God? Why should I? I'll find out when I get there. Until then I have much more important things to think about. Like are we getting nuked this week or next week and what is the next target for the terroist who not only hate christians by the way but ALL of america.

I'm a non-believer, but I have to point out that the bible said nothing about the attributes being physical. Maybe it was talking about higher brain functions and creativity. I'm just saying, not that I believe in it.

eantaelor,
The Bible says God made Adam in His own image. A different word is used in the Hebrew for mankind. 'Ishi' is the transliteration.

God did make us in his own message, he made us perfect (genesis) but then we fell from the perfection he gave us, whis is what we are now. We are in his image but what sets us aside from Him is that He is perfect and we are not. He is all-knowing and we are not. Dont even try comparing us with Him. Its a very illogical question
