I don't quite understand your question. I don't think anyone is confusing the picture of me with a picture of God. In creating that picture, I never thought that for a second.
Well I admit I didn't make a very clear point. This question reminds me when my oldest son went hyper charismatic or bi polar or something and began ripping the wall paper off his rental apt. because it had pictures of grape vines on it. He pointed out
Exodus 20:4
“You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
using this as a law he must obey he threw out his wife's valuable art books, he threw out pictures both painted and photographed. I was flashing back to that day when I saw a picture of you in the avatar and considered it a likeness of something that is on the earth.
That is where the argument I think you are making will take you.
Explain if I am wrong.
