Just luck that a 2 month old baby that dies and becomes God was not the one to make man in his own image. Per Joe in King Follet Discourse those that die as infants rule as Gods in the same form as when they died.

Adam and Even crawling because they were created as 2 month old babies? Can't even speak to name all the animals?

No, it is biblical ---------defiantly not Mormon, but it's biblical. :ugeek:
Psalm 90:2 King James Bible
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.

Before the mountains were formed, even before You formed matter and this planet, even from an eternity past to eternity into the future ---- You alone are GOD!

That is certainly rife with assumptions......

Like I said it's in the Bible and therefore it's one possible interpretation. I don't give a flying flip if it's in a book that doesn't mean it's not an interpretation.

God made man IN his image. ^^ what if he imagined man? Or man is literally made within the image of God, I.e. God is nature, all around. Or DNA? O.O.

I wouldn't worry about it. Even in our lifetime meanings of words have changed drastically. And translations can't be exact down to the small words that connect the key words surely. And we all know the bi le has been twisted and adapted to suit the people in power. Much like the media and propaganda of the world today.
