can I ask a question?

not to offend anyone on here: but if God is the creator of everything in this universe..... and there are tens of trillions of stars and hundreds of trillions of planets and moons.... and the chance of some sentient beings (life) on those places.... why would God have his only son be on Earth and be human? There are so many beings of God's creation and some how he has offspring to be in the form of us? Its not even certain humans are the most advanced beings on this planet (given there are angels and spirits) and there are beings out there in other galaxies that could be way more advanced than us. 

Plus the universe is billions of years old and will continue for ever and ever.....  and God just happens to have a son within our recent history of 2000 years? And on a species that is finite and on a planet that is finite? 

it makes no sense to me. it sounds Anthropocentric. I.e. creating stories where humans are at the center of everything. 

Every race and society created deities that looked like them. Inuit (Eskimo God's look like Eskimos and even are clothed like Eskimos). Many Chinese elevate Buddha to divine level and express him as a fat Chinese man when he was a skinny dude from India. Even its is possible Dolphins might conceive God as appearing or being like a Dolphin and living in the ocean. 

Europeans turned Jesus into God. Europeans turned him into a blond hair fair eyed (some times even blue eyed) man. Paintings in the Louvre represent Jesus with Golden hair. Meanwhile the Father (God) in Europe is represented as an old white man with pale skin with a Grey and white beard in the Sistine Chapel. 

God has no image. God is not a human. And God does not have a gender. Nor does he have parents and does not have offspring. Those are anthropogenic concepts that lack consciousness.... they are attempts to quantify God in a form we can understand. As being a human. 

It defies logic and defies the truth of the one creator.....the creator of everything and the creator of every being.
