GEN 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

or was it:

GEN 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
GEN 2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.


Sir I am confused by my Bible!!!!!

but then goes on to say....


GEN 7:8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth, GEN 7:9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.

does anyone really believe this stuff???

Argonavis, I see you have conveniently skipped;
‘And you shall bring into the ark two of every kind of every living thing of all flesh, to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female. Two of every kind shall come to you to keep them alive; of birds after their kind, and of beasts after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after its kind.’ (Gen. 6:19–20)

Genesis 7:2 talks of clean.....not clean. Here the distinction is to do with sacrifice (Gen8:20); later, with eating.
Genesis 7:8-9 is a basic description of everything entering the Ark "as God had commanded Noah."

does anyone really believe this stuff???

Yes! If you want to do a Bible study, I'm up for it But if you really want to believe by flapping your arms that either you or your offspring will grow wings, thats up to you (thats a joke btw)
