God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Genesis 1:27
If God created man in his image, and man is imperfect, is God therefore a perfect image of Man?

If God is a perfect image of Man, and God created man in His image, is Man therefore divine?
If Man is divine, and all men are equal before God as an image of Him, are men therefore equal among one another?
If all men are equal, are all men therefore rightly governed by their own counsel rather than by other men?
If all men are thus free, does democracy provide the optimal form of government with which to preserve such freedom?
If democracy is the optimal form of government to preserve the freedom of men, does God favor democracy?
If there existed a being equal in power, knowledge, and "presence" as God, would they be equals or competitors?
