alright - on the one hand, we have a group of good but insecure people who want to show that
humankind has dominion over the earth and must therefore not do or show anything that relates us with animals - no skin, no cleavage, no suckling children, must stay clean and prim and proper (don't talk about bodily functions, either) so as to show how civilized and advanced we really are compared to the wild.
«Let us make
humankind in our image,» God says, «according to our likeness; and let them
have dominion over the fish,... birds, cattle,... all the wild animals... every creeping thing.»
