Handsome friend you got there

This organization really needs a suggestion box.

Problem is past me never listens to future me

As you know, I love this prayer too.

Someone should

Yeah I laughed

Worth a try, no? Even if in long defeat. And don’t the proposals themselves have merit?

Honestly, I probably copped it from you.

What better way to end the Day of Much Marking. Self-indictment for plagiarism.

If God’s claim is the main thing, maybe isolating rationality, or temporality, or language, or relationality as the image becomes secondary. (At least, secondary w/r/t Daniel’s concerns, as I play telepath.)

(I was thinking of 9:6 here.)

(Gen 5:3 is interesting too.)

Daniel’s first worry rings true. Because “image/likeness” isn’t spelled out, it’s a bit of a theological inkblot.

What’s clearer in Genesis is what the “of God” entails. The divine image means human blood—bodily life—is spoken for. Humans belong to God materially.

Fellow putter-off here. Do you think imago Dei talk fares better if the weight falls on “of”?
