Because any human can do magic tricks and claim they're god. All the atheists I've known look healthy and youthful.

You have a love for Jesus that is admirable. He did come from heaven and lived on earth. He does now know what we have to endure here. That is why he died for our sins. And He taught us how we should worship his father and ours. The Almighty God sent his son Jesus to earth because he loved the world so much.
Jesus had a beginning but his father did not. Jehovah has been from everlasting to everlasting. And Jesus is called the "only begotten" son of God. So Jehovah directly created Jesus...and through Jesus everything else was made.
Again you are right when it comes to the spiritual peace God's worshippers experience.
That is why Americans are such happy people..because they can serve God unmolested. But soon there will be trouble. There are some that want to do away with religion and christians.
There has to be some out there that will stand up to this.
And there has to be some who will protect christians even though they don't believe.
It is prophecy fulfilled...they hated me Jesus said..they will hate you...and deliver you up to tribulation and will kill you.
So protect and love each other...you will be blessed

Does it make sense that God was created as man upon the arrival of Jesus and not earlier? And then DIED? But its no big deal cos He has spares (Trinity). Couldn't he be a form of man from the beginning of earth and lived through to today? Of course not, because God is greater than Man, any man, even the messengers he had spoken to.
You believe Moses as a messenger, along with Abraham, David and others... why is Jesus different. Because as far as I'm concern the only words Jesus has use to describe himself was prophet, "I am but a prophet" and many more examples. Only Peter said "You are the son of God" not Jesus saying " I am the Son of God" .... I could go on and on about this, but you best look it up yourself. Then Muhammad was send for the same purpose to set the record straight, but NOOOOO... you just wouldn't listen, would you?

Hercules, was god (OK half god) like Jesus. His father was the top god and mother a mortal woman. So there is another god who is similar. Yes there are differences, but both went on a Journey, and tested by the heavens.
As for worn down looks go to Eastern Europe especially Poland. This is the most religious country I've been too, and the little women that walk the streets with humped backs look pretty worn down.

He is the only God to have come from heaven to earth.!! Krishna Guru Nanak Guru Gobind Singh Muhammad, Ram all did not come from any where they all came from heaven.
he is the only God who died for us!1 He never died on the cross
Why is it people are questioning Jesus's deity because he was like a human? Every prophet was like a human. God has no family. Jesus was a prophet not God there is only one GOD he is God for all

Jesus is the light of the world. Those in darkness don't like that.
Ephesians 5:8,10"for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord, walk as children of Light...do not participate in unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them..."
Not sure about the wrinkles and scar question, I have plenty of both and am a Christian. I haven't met many atheists, but I imagine wrinkles and scars just come with age and injury and not due to our beliefs.
I am looking forward to a glorified body in heaven!

I'll comment on the first part of this...
Had God not come to earth and lived as a man and suffered human suffering, we could say "God how can you know what grief feels like? You have never lost a loved one" or "Lord, how can you know what pain Im in if you have never felt it"
"How can you mend a broken heart if you never shed a tear"
Jesus had more than one purpose when He came... Thank God!

In Hinduism, Vishnu appeared on earth nine times (one yet to come). He appeared as Rama, Krishna, and Buddha (all in human form).
I question Jesus' deity not because he was like a human. I do not believe that God sends messiahs (or prophets, for that matter) at all because he has no need to. If God is perfect, he has no reason to interfere in the world, and if he needs to contact us (though I don't believe he does), he can do it directly and doesn't need anyone to do it for him (he is omnipotent after all, isn't he?).

Actually, according to Hinduism, Vishnu has incarnated 9 times already and we are awaiting his 10th incarnation.
