Why do you think that god looks human? If thats what you think hasn't it come to mind that god could just be another human starting the 3,000 year old myth?

Has anybody thought how ridiculous that sounds. We are look human because of genetic and physical influences.
Why would God look human? Do you really think that God has skin or a brain or a heart? Why would he need a mouth? To breath oxygen? To talk? Why would he need blood? Is there oxygen and glucose in heaven?
For crying out loud, use some common sense for once and don't rely on every world the bible says because it really undermines christianity and says to the world that "you are nothing but a bunch of brain washed fools"

Representations of gods are photos or photos that the religion thinks people will comprehend. case in point, on the ceiling of the Sistine chapel, Michelangelo painted the Christian God as an old white guy with a flowing white beard. it rather works an identical way in each lifestyle and age. that's much less complicated to settle for a faith's coaching if the believer can wrap their head around the assumption, and human or human-like photos are a shorthand for the assumption.

If you're christian, you do because somewhere it says humans were created in His image.
If you're anyone else, you realise a God/gods do not need to be human in appearance.
it comes down to human beings automatic thought that we're the center of the universe & everything good must look like us.

He made man in his own image and he walked with man in the gardens of Eden, hence God can be reasonably corporial as well as spritual.
Are we not, according to science, just a bunch of tightly fused electrons, nutrons and protons?
How can oxygen be both invisible gas, liquid and solid?
Einstein said bricks can fall upwards, how is that so?

An image is not exact in design. It is not at all like looking in a mirror. We were created in the spiritual image (or likeness) of God.

God became a human being to live among us and to save us,we would not be able to withstand God if He appeared as is, no more than we could stand next to the Sun.

In Genesis, when God created Adam and Eve, the scripture tells us that he created us in his image. Since we look they way we do, we can only trust and have faith that God looks like we do. Scripture is the biggest thing that he left us to follow by. Every word is the truth and therefore, God looks like us.
