Humans of today have evolved from homo-sapiens. If God created us in His image, that's exactly how God looks like! Now those of you who say that we've always looked like this and evolution is evil. Why is it that fossils of humans thousands and thousands of years way back doens't look like the modern human being? Ofcourse the classical christian answer would be, "Because Satan altered the fossils!" ROFLOL!

As a Muslim we believe humans are not monkey before its all stupid science who create myths... Read holy Quran there's nothing written in.it like humans are monkey... The first person God made is Adam (A.S) and he is really a human like us... Thrn from Adam (A.S) God take on skeleton bone from.chest and make WAFA his wife and then they married and start giving birth to.babies like that this continues and we humans made... At old time one day pass like many years so they give birth to children day and night

No God looks like no one else in the universe. Since man was made in the image of God (Genesis 1:26, 27) man looks like God in a physical way, although God himself is a Spirit and not a physical being. For an example, when a physical man sees an imagine of himself in a mirror, photograph or a portrait the man is of flesh but the imagine of him is merely a reflection, impression or rendition of himself, which is not made of what he is. Monkeys are not made in the image of man nor God, they simply have similarities to man because the one God made both man and monkeys from his imagination and power. Man only evolved into different races, not from another kind of creature. Man has always been of humankind or mankind. Monkeys are a different kind of creature amongst animals. Man never looked like monkeys, that is scientific fallacy and dogma. God actually is a Spirit of holy spirit (an active force) and dynamic energy (the ultimate form of energy). He shines brighter than all stars in the universe combined. His form is exemplified by man's body, but as aforementioned he is not a physical being but one of spirit and energy that illuminates all things and is the source of all energy.

Actually, science debunks evolution theory. Humans never looked like monkeys. Humans from way back used to live a lot longer than we do today. Did you know that the nasal bones and eyebrow bones in your face never stop growing your whole life? Just think how big they could get if you lived for, say, 600 years. You would look like one of those fossils you talk about having ginormous brows and noses!
And besides, "in our image" (which are the actual words used in the bible) meant the image of a triune being. God's image is this: three separate but equal persons. We are body, soul and spirit , hence, in the image of God.

I was going to answer this like others have, but I don't think you would understand. So, I will leave it at this...
Evolution obviously exists, but not in the most common thought form. Everything evolves!
However, God (IMHO) meant that we are spiritually made in His image. Not the physical form.
Primates are similar to humans and we may be distant cousins, but I doubt we are closer than that.
I could be wrong as this is just my opinion. Time will tell, me thinks!
God Bless!

Actually, there *is* a "physical appearance" answer to your "question".
IF we suppose that evolution does occur, and IF we suppose that humans (and monkeys) evolved from the same primitive primates...
then we can suppose that we look exactly as God formed us, using evolution, in his own image.
We could even go so far as to say that God is not done forming us.
*IF* we believe in evolution - most assuredly a matter of faith.

That's not my answer. By your analogy if God looked like a monkey, then mankind must look like a monkey, means that you look like a monkey. What zoo do you live in?? PS.. Those holding to the theory of evolution say mankind did not evolve from monkeys.

Why do atheists always look at a "god" from a christians perspective? There are other options...and very reasonable options. You have to think a little deeper, and look at the entire picture...not just an "abrahamic" god.

I wonder why we all look different then. I like to think that the Gods created us in the image they had in their minds of us, not necessarily in their exact image.

I don't believe at all that Satan altered fossils; however, your interpretation of in his image is somewhat limited. God is a Spiritual being and not bound to a specific form. Most interpret that saying as in the image of His essence -- his characteristics and attributes.
Not necessarily one specific skeletal mold.

First seek the truth and find out what being created in the image of God means.
