We are made in his Image.
We are made by him.
Eveyrthing was perfect once.
We are no longer perfect.
God is.
God is strong, thats why we need him.
We are weak thats why we need God.

Nope. This is factually wrong. The hebrew word was as.

"Let us create man as our image."

Humanity is god.

This makes no logical sense. If we were perfect, why did we choose to sin? If god is perfect, just as we were, what prevents him from choosing to sin, assuming he has free will?

"lets us create man in our image" Yeh that is totaly right.
My bible says that now...i dotn have to look back in the hebrew to find it.
He's talking about himself as the "trinity"

Thus we are made in Gods image.

Why do you do that? It serves only to pollute the thread.

I couldnt create someone like that. (and Yes i know ur using a metaohor.)
I wasn't saying that you created god. Obviously the concept was transfered to you. You have created your image of god, but god is a concept created by humanity over a long period of time.

I wasn't speaking to your capacity to invent a deity.

Ok, first you're an idiot. This (the quote) is pollution. If you have nothing constructive to add, you should leave. Second, you're wrong. It has nothing to do with pollution, and everything to do with the essence of what chap is trying to say.

I'm not sure if this is just ignorance or plain stupidity. Yes, your bible says it now, which is the entire point of me saying what I said. It is wrong. It is the wrong translation. Is that simple enough?

I know he was talking about himself as the trinity. That's not the point.

You didn't support this. You can't make a definitive statement like that and provide no reason for it. This has no logical support. Sorry.

No, it's not 'totaly right', it's wrong. Plain and simple.

lol..But I have a very Imagintive mind. I can sit and think and make up tons of things not to apply to my life but just becuz i have a creative mind, and if creative minds nowa days couldnt imagine even making up a God I highly doubt someone would be that creative.

Chap, I hate to break it to you but making up a concept like God is far from creative. In fact, I think it makes total sense. I can understand the why but not the how. Now, if you go read the Scientology thread, that is creative!
