“G-d’s actual image. Does that mean that G-d has athlete’s foot, as man does?”

The very first point Rambam makes in moreh nevuchim (chalek 1 perek 1), is that saying Hashem doesn’t have a guf (like you’re saying), but some spiritual idea of form (as I understand you’re saying in 2nd reading, zelem dmus), is kefirah. He then includes that position as saying Hashem has a form (uses words zelem and dmus).
That being said, I can’t believe Rashi held guf mamash or anything close to that. It sounds insane.
