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.
-- Gen. 1:26 (KJV)
In this verse, God decides to make mankind after His own image and likeness. He also gives mankind dominion over the earth and over every animal upon the earth. Mankind was created as a reflection of God. Therefore, if there was no God, then there would not be any humans upon the earth and man would not have authority over any of the animals upon this earth.
