I'm sure an expert such as yourself can explain this dilemma for us! The Bible states we are made in God's image. How can a material image of a non material thing be created? Especially when the non material entity is omnipresent, i.e. must at least be as big as the universe. I realize some obese Americans come close, but...and how does the non material being interact with material in order to create stuff?
When missionaries encountered naked indigenous people, the first thing was to make them ashamed of their naked bodies and put on clothing. If God is such perfection, howcum an unadorned image of him is obscene? Is a retarded or deformed person also an image of the perfect God?
