No, it isn't. Most of the universe is hostile to human life, and so is most of the Earth too. It is only recently that we developed the capacity to sustain ourselves in hostile environments but it is still risky. Ask anyone who climbs Mount Everest.Tommykeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751182125861177379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6804877330088673665.post-15066233179903474722007-10-28T06:04:00.000-05:002007-10-28T06:04:00.000-05:00Infidel753,Thanks for the nice words and welcome. ...Infidel753,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the nice words and welcome.

If man was created by God "in his own image", then that means that God has (and has had, throughout his whole eternal existence) a wide range of attributes which have no conceivable function in a perfect, transcendent, environment-independent being, but are only relevant to the imperfect and limited human creatures which that being would someday create. It is rather like a car claiming that Henry Ford must have been born with wheels.<BR/><BR/>As a description of the creator of the universe, this makes no logical sense. As an example of the kind of crude mythology which ignorant and malnutrition-befuddled tribesmen in the ancient Middle East might have come up with, it is quite plausible.<BR/><BR/>Your point about women is somewhat less telling, however. Abrahamic religions traditionally look upon the female half of our species as essentially another kind of domestic animal, and hardly human at all. These religions hold that <I>man</I> was made in God's image; the creation of woman was more like the creation of goats or sheep.<BR/><BR/>This point does not enhance the standing of those religions, to say the least.<BR/><BR/>You have an intriguing site here; thanks for creating it.
