isn't this a great way to get a group of people to not like other races, or to consider other races "in need" of listening to a new religion??

It's funny how ie. Christians say that we atheists think we're superior to everybody, yet they have the cheek to say that they're modeled after gods.

We are made in God’s image, meaning that we are endowed with moral qualities and the capacity for spirituality. (Genesis 1:26)
Hence, Jehovah knows that despite our imperfections, we have within us the potential for cultivating the same qualities that he exemplifies.
Being made in God’s image, humans have the capacity to reflect godly attributes. Surely we should try to cultivate such qualities as love, mercy, kindness, goodness, and patience, reflecting the One who made us.
The Creator is a spirit; he does not have a physical body as we do, so we are in his “image” in that we can reflect his personality, displaying a measure of his fine qualities. Humans have the capacity to chart their lives according to principles, that is, according to what they believe to be a code of right action. Jehovah has had many of these principles recorded in his Word.

Yes our spirit is. This body the house, is a 3 dimensional dirt suit. The image is we are all spirits in a body. When we die the body sleeps that is its dead, and the spirit goes on either in the present of Christ, or to torment.

My friend is an artist. She says her paintings are her image, although they don't look like her. I think that's what it means.

ALL MEN are made in God's image. This can be taken to different interpretations.

Yes. Not His physical image of course, but in that we can think and reason.
