Adam and Eve were unique
Adam and Eve were created unlike any other creature; including the angels. Man is the only being that was created with the internal abilities that are “like” God. Man has the ability to think, reason, display emotions, to love and care for creation and others. He has the ability to be creative in aesthetic activities (talents) and his spirit (breathed into him) is eternal. The most glorious of all about man (on earth) is that he is also the only creature that God made with a special place within him to be able to “house” the living God (Holy Spirit). God desired to be close to man by indwelling him. Man was the only creature that God created to have relationship with him as his children. God’s plan was to have Adam and Eve reflect God’s own nature by not sinning against him. In God and in heaven there is no sin.

Maria, I wanted to encourage you by saying I think I understand what you are trying to say here and I can identify a little bit with your situation and how talking about other things can help us get the mind off of whatever is bothering us. I will include you in my prayers as you struggle against depression. This is a good place to grow spiritually. A topic like this one can easily become controversial but I don't believe that is your intention at all. What I think you are trying to say in this discussion is that since God created male and female and created mankind in His image, then both masculine and feminine complete each other in His creation and God is pleased with both male and female as both represent His attributes. Please correct me if I have misunderstood. As a final note, we must realize the implications of the Fall on the image of God in mankind.

Ok Bear with me Man was created in the image of God Gen.1;26
Man is far from destitute of a divine idea. For, as it is written in Genesis, man partook of inspiration, being endowed with th purer essence than the other living creatures. The victim of that seduction Adam was free and master of himself. And, as being the image and likeness of God, he was stronger than any angel. And, as being also the breath of the Divine Being, he was nobler than that material spirit of which angels were made....He would not have made all things subject to man, if he had been too weak for such dominion, or if he wereinferior to the angels, to whom He assigned no such subjects.
Since He is Himself the invisible image of the imvisible God, He invisibly conveyed a share in Himself to all His retional creatures. So each one obtained a part of Him exactly poportioned to the amount of affection with which he regarded Him....Agreeably to the faculty of free will, variety, and diversity that charcterizes individual souls, one person is attached with a warmer love to the Author of its being, and another with a more feeble and weaker regared for Him.
