I submit that we are made in the image of God primarily because we are moral agents regardless of individual intellectual capacity. Interestingly, while many secularists want to deny moral laws so that they can break them, they also desire to claim to be moral agents. Interestingly, they wish to extend some freedom from moral agency to the animal world ("He's just following his instinct.") while anthropomorphically imagining that some animals behave as though they are moral creatures. (i.e. pets, and "Those are 'good' snakes because they benefit us by eating the rats." - are there any 'good' rats?)Jim Pembertonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01446388434272680014noreply@blogger.com
