So all of mankind could share in the benefits of the Incarnation...."God in human form" (Jesus - male) - born of a woman (female)...It's the only way it could be. For God to take true human form, He had to be born of woman. If Christ was "Christa' - half of humanity loses out.

~~~Ram ,,, Human Psychology. Because christianity is a Patriarchal Religion, as most religions are, thus The Male assumes the most powerful of attributes. If it is accepted in a culture that the male is dominant, then it only follows simple logic that the most powerful of gods couldn't possibly be feminine. But to get deeper into The Symbolism you will find other very common denominators of many religions/philosphies, that being,,,,Father Sky (god, spirit) impregnates Mother Earth (material, flesh) resulting in the many forms of God's Children (as Jesus said at the Sermon on the Mount "OUR FATHER who art in heaven) .,, at any rate,,,Christianity is a plagiarized religion finding it's origins in Zoroastrianism, Mithraism and of course the Egyptian religion of Isis and Osiris,,, If you REALLY want to know about Jesus, then read the books of the late prof. Joseph Campbell and you will find just how UN-original the christian motif is.

"Let us make man in Our image. In the image of God created He them, male and female created He them."
Why then come as a human male?
Easy. Males NEEDED the example!
Females only needed another human female. We got Mary!

An excellent point
as Imam Hamza Yusuf said "If God is a man- man is a God!"
- Christianity is the ultimate doctrine of male supremacy and misogyny

Oh, because christians don't like the idea of females actually having a place in society, otherwise there would have been a female pope and female president by now (Hillary Clinton is a perfect example, she did most of Bill's work).

First off, what eexactly does "why god didn't be mary!?" mean? Do you mean, why didn't god chose a "daughter" of god instead of a "son". Because he didn't. End of story. Frankly, I am not sure Jesus was the son of God....maybe he was just another boy born to just another woman.

Cause God hates women, didnt you read the bible. Don't make me look it up, but you thumbs down me I will edit this and prove it.
Fine here:
1 Corinthians 14: 34 women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. 35 If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.
1 Tim. 2: 11 Let a woman learn in peace, fully submitted; 12 but I do not permit a woman to teach a man or exercise authority over him; rather, she is to remain at peace.

Because it was men who wrote the bible. They were all so ugly they couldn't get a woman, so they decided to pay them back by designing a religion that would treat women as second-class incubators on legs.
The funny thing is that even many women still think this religion is the 'real' thing!

When a baby is born with a X and a Y chromosome it's a boy. If a baby is born with two X chromosomes it's a girl.
