You don't really go by evidence in ANY field do you? like this little experiment in futility you are running. Anyone come forward here and say, YEAH, that looks like the real deal'? NO, all you have had are nay sayers and I notice you got 5 thumbs down and not one thumbs up.
Doesn't that tell you SOMETHING?
Don't you even get the part that they are not presenting science, only spreading opinions?

Originally posted by sonhouseNO. God is always referred to as HE, but that is not referring to physical sex because God is spirit. The fact that mankind was made in God's image is not related to the additional information that God made mankind both male and female, like animals. Mankind was made both male and female mainly for physical reproduction purposes so that they would be able to fill the earth. The image is not referring to a physical image but to a spiritual image and likeness such as morality, even though it shows up in the physical. As I mentioned before, creativity is an attribute of God that we were also given.
So god is male AND female?
This video points out that Jesus was an image of God that God was well pleased with. However, we may be bad images of God that God is not pleased with. However, all of us, male and female, are better images of God than any other animal that God created.

You say we are in the likeness of god's spirit.
So therefore our spirits have no gender.
Is that correct?

Originally posted by wolfgang59God has the attributes of a good father, a good mother, and a good child. Although God is primarily identified as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit and is always seen as "He", I don't believe the gender is of primary importance. God's image can be revealed in both male and female. I think it is mainly a cultural thing and the result of the sin in the Garden of Eden than God is revealed as He instead of She. I could be wrong, but that is the way I see it now.
