The most important thing about humanity is God, both our constitution as being created in His image and our thoughts of who He is. The lower the thoughts of God then, by association, the lower the thoughts of humanity. It is no wonder that those who diminish God would also be those that diminish humanity by that same right.
For if the worth and value of a human is determined by the fact that we are created by God in His image. This is the very definition of man. Therefore, whenever we reduce our thoughts of God we equally reduce our thoughts of humanity. We cannot, nor shall we be able to, separate this connection. Let us then never forget this reality that the low view of God is the culprit of the low view of humans, while a high view of God will have an equal but opposite result.
