If intelligent life was found on another planet...

....and they did not look like humans but had the same level of intelligence or moreso, would we still be able to maintain that we are created in God's image?

Probably not as we would be branded Racist or some other rediclous phobic type name.

Well, yes and no. It all depends upon your interpretation of 'created in God's image'. If it means we look like him then no. If, however, it means that human beings are endowed with similar personality traits to God, which they are, then yes.

First, I think we'd need to confirm that there is intelligent life on THIS planet............;o)

I've seen Wigan people, God must have a face like a slapped elbow

[naomi24]

What about evolution? He has to look something like an amoeba.

Luna, your presence is awaited - here:

Since we don;t know what God looks like, I guess any sort of being could be made in his image - he might morph into all sorts of forms, depending on how the fancy takes him.

[naomi24]

Luna, read the address. I don't recall you saying anything wrong either.

[naomi24]

Sorry for this interruption to your thread flobabdob, but I just spotted Luna and needed to pass a message to him. Carry on folks. :o)

[naomi24]

Sorry, I meant flobadob. Time for bed methinks. Night all.

[naomi24]

Luna, that was not aimed solely or specifically at you, but if people request privacy then their wishes must be respected, so you're wrong to take it personally. I was simply trying to convey a message here, but if you want to shoot the messenger, fine. Please yourself. Sorry I spoke.
