Sam, I am really surprised that you would slander the greatest Rishonim based on nothing. Such heinous accusations just because Rashi and Rashbam explained the Pshat of the words!? If the idea of Tzelem bothers you, take course #1 in Kabbala, Chassidus, or even certain types of Chakira and Mussar.
Just like we can draw a diagram of meta-physical concepts, of how they interrelate, something (or in this case, someone) can be formed in that shape. We know, and you expressed an awareness of the fact, that there is a Shiur Koma, of the Hanhaga, Hashgacha, Hashpaa, Haora, or whatever else you call it. Most of us take this for granted.
It didn’t cross the mind of any Meforash on Rashi to say what you are saying about him. The Pasuk referes to Malachim as Ruchos; do you seriously think Rashi held more Hagshama about Hakadosh Baruch Hu, Rachmana Litzlan?
It is mind boggling that people would not be afraid of the Achrayos of tampering with such things.
Besides for the above, even had you found such a thing, do you really think it is a ???? ??????
