God did not "create" Jesus - Jesus was pre-existant with the Father - as God. Jesus was called "The Word" before anything else existed - He was WITH God and He WAS God. Eternal without beginning.

This is where the God notion gets nutty.
Did God create Jesus (Who is himself) or is Jesus the God of Creation (Again still Himself).
Does God / Jesus (After all it is himself) suffer from multiple personality disorder?
Wouldn't that make God / Jesus (Themself) Completely CRAZY!
I feel my sanity slipping just thinking about it!

First, Jesus was not created, he was incarnated. Jesus existed at the beginning of time. Read the first chapter of John, this is pretty clearly stated.
Second, the purpose of Jesus' incarnation was for the love of us, not to be loved.
Third, do you also believe that one should not have children or a spouse because it is enough to love yourself?
You're complaining about the most conclusive proof that God is NOT self-centered. You must really hate him!

This is THE major flaw in Christian theology. The notion that god created Jesus for the purpose of convincing god to remit sins is as silly as it sounds.

Why do people have children? God delights in His creation just as we delight in our children. It's not because God has an ego problem. Would you like to go through life with no one loving you but yourself? Nothing or no one else to care for?

Sometimes I wonder if Christians can tell, that all these misunderstandings and questions relating to God in general would be averted if they stopped saying Jesus was the son of God or God himself.
Creation worship is not allowed in Monotheism.

Jesus is NOT God. Lucky for you and me that Jesus loved his Father and us to carry out his Fathers wishes.

God doesn't need anyone to love Him or be the object of His Love because He is a Trinity. Each Person loves and is loved.
Jesus was begotten, not created.

God came into the world to become like us so that we can be like him.
