On the subject of DNA + RNA.

The science of DNA + RNA proved once and for all that we are VERY close indeed in relationship to our Ape cousins.

So IF we are made in God's image, doesn't this imply that God is also a close cousin of the Ape?

Somehow, it gives me great pleasure to imagine the Gawd of Abraham swinging from branches and eatching bananas....

Our bodies are very finely made robots, and yes, apes are our cousins. IMO we are not our bodies. No robot has conscious awareness and free will. We are extensions of Ultimate Reality.

In general, the modern version of this teaching is that since god is non-corporeal, the "likeness" has to do with moral awareness and the like.

To not see a kinship with these guys would be to delude yourself.

This is probably a serious post regarding genes...which I will absorb shortly...But it made me think of an episode of Stephen Colbert aired a show dealing with DNA testing companies...really funny. So if you need a giggle - take a peek.

Well that’s the evidence that I’ve been waiting on! Now if I encounter some pretentious fuck I’ll just throw at them and blame it on my genetic relationship with the primate world. ???

If we were made in god's image, we would be invisible.
