Everything was created by God (Genesis ch.1). Humans are the pinnacle of creation because only they have a God-given soul (Genesis 2:7). See also:
The Bible verse does not explicitly state that humans are God's greatest creation. However, it does mention that humans are created in the image of God, which suggests a special and unique relationship between humans and God.
Both the Hindu and Catholic creation stories involve a divine being creating the universe out of nothing, and both emphasize the divine power and wisdom behind creation. Additionally, both traditions hold that humans are a special creation with a unique purpose in the world.

The crowning act of creation, according to many religious beliefs, was the creation of humans. In the Christian tradition, humans were created in the image of God and given dominion over the Earth.
The phrase "let's make man in our image" reflects the concept of creation in religious beliefs by suggesting that humans are created in the likeness of a higher power or deity. This implies that humans have qualities or characteristics that mirror those of the divine being, emphasizing the belief that humans are special and have a unique connection to the creator.
I would say that we have the gift of abstract thinking and opinion also we can communicate with other humans and express our views withdetail but we over estimate ourselves and we are just like all animals
Humans have been given the role of caring for creation on earth.
sixth day of creation "god" made humans in his "own" picture.
You are special, you are His creation, you are beautifully made.
The story of creation depicts man as a special and beloved creation of God, made in His image and given dominion over all other creatures on earth. It emphasizes man's responsibility to care for and steward the earth, as well as the importance of relationships with God and fellow humans.
Well, I actually never heard that term 'special creation'. But I think it explains itself: Any, and All Creation, is Special. It is unique. All things created are Different from the next creation; and different from the last creation. There are too many unique & different SYSTEMS within each creation, which makes the whole package a 'special creation'. For example: A chicken eats gravel; they bathe in dry dirt; they have no front arms to pick up food with; they can balance on a perch; etc. These are all 'different systems'; each different item is a 'special creation' all by itself. A duck loves the water; loves slugs; has a bill instead of a beak, which works something like a vacuum cleaner, with a filter system; they have webbed feet; do not balance on a perch; they have much more power in their body than a chicken. A pig loves the mud; it's skin does not breathe nor sweat; it has a snout which works differently from a bill, and a beak. It has 4 legs, but still can't pick anything up with the front ones; has no wings. Every little item mentioned is a very unique and 'special creation'. Likewise when Jehovah God created this thing called 'man-kind'. He created mankind 'in his image'. That was a 'special creation'. Animal-kind was not created 'in God's image'. When humans have babies; that's also a 'special creation'.
Yes, God made humans stewards, or caretakers of the creation.
