Adam and Eve became more, not less, like God insofar as they came to see the same moral distinctions He did.  This was precisely what He confirms, saying Adam and Eve have "become like one of us, knowing good and evil."  In all the centuries of Christian hand-wringing and breast beating that have followed int he wake of the Adamic decision, this fact seems to have disappeared entirely.  Humankind and God now share a common moral awareness, a common capacity to judge between right and wrong, a common capacity for love.

We are continuing with tragic and devastating exceptions, on the trajectory inaugurated by Adam and Eve, becoming ever more like god, as we become ever more adept at discerning good and evil, and nourishing the wellsprings of human love.  And in so doing, we grow more capable of discerning a kind and merciful God among His many counterfeits.
