It is said god created each person in his own image. But in are day in age we can almost make clones. In only a 100 or maybe 200 years we will be able to alter genetics of fetus and choose what they look like. What do you have to say about this?

First off no scripture readings A book made by man 2000 years ago bores me I prefer buddhist teachings. You shouldn't rely on a book on how to live.

It shows that we are just flesh. God is just a superstition, and with each advance in science that is made more obvious.

When the God's Word the Bible says that we are made in God's image, it doesn't necessarily mean in a physical sense.
Nobody has seen God. 1 John 4:12 "At no time has anyone beheld God. If we continue loving one another, God remains in us and his love is made perfect in us."
John 1:18 "No man has seen God at any time; the only-begotten god who is in the bosom [position] with the Father is the one that has explained him."
But we do know God is a spirit. John 4:24 "God is a Spirit, and those worshiping him must worship with spirit and truth.”
So how is it that we are created in God's image?
We were created with moral qualities like that of God. 1 Corinthians 2:12-16 "Now we received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that have been kindly given us by God. These things we also speak, not with words taught by human wisdom, but with those taught by [the] spirit, as we combine spiritual [matters] with spiritual [words]. Â But a physical man does not receive the things of the spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot get to know [them], because they are examined spiritually. However, the spiritual man examines indeed all things, but he himself is not examined by any man. For “who has come to know the mind of Jehovah, that he may instruct him?” But we do have the mind of Christ."
Galatians 5:22 "On the other hand, the fruitage of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, 23Â mildness, self-control. Against such things there is no law."

We're on the verge of creating life.
God, in the Bible and Jesus, in the Bible said we could be like Gods, except for the finite life span.
It does take a bit of experience to be a God and you don't get that in even 200 years.

In that I can see the very desire of a child of God to be Godlike.
