More Than Human?


So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them. (Genesis 1:27)
 
But sometimes, animals can appear to be in our image? Photographer Tim Flach has taken animals in to his studio and captured a books-worth of images that seem to show that perhaps humans and animals are more closely related than we give them credit for.
 
Christians believe that humans poses a soul, and have been given stewardship of the earth. This means we are more than just animals. Are these photos just clever studio constructions, or are we not so special after all? What makes us fundamentally different to animals? Are we not as different as we think?
