"He" is Fabulous!

This is my god...

When one creates a deity it will most likely be in their own image.

"...if cattle and horses and lions had hands
or could paint with their hands and create works such as men do,
horses like horses and cattle like cattle
also would depict the gods' shapes and make their bodies
of such a sort as the form they themselves have..." [Xenophanes, Philosopher. Around 500 b.c.e]

It is known as anthropomorphism.

He made me in his image, so he looks like me. And I must say he is damn good looking.

I've always like the blond / blue-eyed Aryan Jesus.

many ot the ancient Egyptian gods looked like animals,

How else do you think a middle eastern man with skin of bronze and hair of sheeps wool became a blond haired blue eyed guy.

All hail cthulhu
Yup spitting image of me

I think it's egotistical, sure, but I think this is easy to understand when we take a look at how and why the idea developed. We'd have a hard time finding any way to relate to a deity that doesn't approximate our own appearance. The golden calf thing, for example, isn't relatable whatsoever. Believing that god made us in "his" image helps to strengthen the argument by soothing the ego. It makes it more palatable, especially to those suffering from feelings of oppression or inferiority.

Well, the Christians point out that man was made in god's image. I lean more toward Lloyd Pye's ideas in "Intervention Theory of Origins-of the Universe, of Life, of Hominoids, and of Humans" (Everything You Know Is Wrong Essentials), that.this planet was seeded and terraformed by more advanced races.
Our own DNA made sudden and impossible leaps, indicating genetic engineering, as the Sumerian texts, written 2000 years before the Bible was, claims.
