Humans are not animals
"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." Genesis 1:25
"Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture." Psalm 100:3
The deluded, ignorant followers of Darwin believe that man is actually a type of animal. I disprove this godless blasphemy with totally real facts. God created humans in his own image, so humans cannot possibly be animals.

Well, in the face of such overpowering evidence and logic, the scientific community must now concede.
OTOH, I have to wonder what God does with nipples and a belly button.
"God created humans in his own image, so humans cannot possibly be animals."
Well, what if God is an animal? What then?
“in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them”
This is very confusing. Does this mean the judeo-christian god is some form of transexual or intersexual being?
In which case why are christers so down on transgendered people?
It’s a mystery to me.

OK, you, like, totally, do that. We are all, like, absolutely thrilled to hear them.
You can start anytime you want.
No hurry.
In your own time.
*looksatwatch* What do you think, how long until you’ll start? I could come back later, if that suits you better.

So where were you when the defence needed you, in Kitzmiller vs. Dover?

So, humans are fungi? Plants? Protists? Bacteria?
Those are the only five alternatives, ya know.
I'd rather be an intelligent, independent animal than "the sheep of his pasture", thank you very much.
HOW did he create us? And, how and why was he created?
"Totally real facts"? Yeah, that sounds SO scientific, honey.
There, there. *pats HN on the head* Go and play like a good boy/girl, and let the grown-ups talk.
Waaah, my sense of self is so fragile that I am horrified by the scientific fact that humans are just a particularly innovative, successful, and destructive species, boohoo.
Furthermore, science has made leaps and bounds in this area in just the last few years. No longer can we boast that we're the only animal who creates and uses tools, who can pass the mirror test, who uses language, who has a culture. People like HolyName are fighting a battle that was lost a really, really long time ago. There really isn't even any debate left as to whether we're animals--just how different we are from other species, and that gap is narrowing anyway.

Except the Bible isn't the only source of a creation myth around, so you need to provide extra evidence to back it up...
I'll wait.. but since I have been waiting for 40 years now, get a move on.
So god must work an awful lot like a mammal then.
Evidently god gives birth to live young, hair, gas breathing lungs with a four chambered heart, vertebrae, bilateral symmetry, and developed ass first.
Maybe Holyname isn't implying that humans aren't mammals, so much as mammals are created in god's image? Not to mention, reptiles, birds, amphibians, fish, assorted weirdness, insects, plankton and algae... screw it just about everything alive has some similarity to humans that makes holyname's argument completely insane.
Er... You might want to check your bible again.
Ecclesiastes 3:18-20 (KJV) - "I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts. For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity. All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again."
"Humans are not animals "
That leaves vegetables and minerals.
Tell me which you think humans are.
This may be a poe, but I had this exact conversation with a real fundie.
HN says we are not animals; yet we need to breathe, eat, drink, piss, shit and fuck like animals to survive. And there's all that DNA too.

“Humans are not animals”
ANd to prove this, you quote from the book that says the sky is solid, the Earth is flat, and the sun sleeps in a little bedroom at night.
Such compelling source you wield.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
