Made in God's image
Christians believe that people are made in the image of God. A passage in the Genesis says that God created Adam in his likeness. Many people only think that he meant his physical image, but that is not so. The truth is that God has not physical image, but he is the unseen force that created the universe. If God created us in his physical image, we would all be invisible. When the writers of Genesis said we were created in his image, I think they meant he gave us one thing that he didn't give to any other creature on earth - the ability to reason. God gave us reason, and we became the dominant species of the earth. How many other creature could invent and figure out math formulas. He also gave us his emotions, which we use to feel the world on a whole new level.
