there are no many anachronisisms and contradictory stories. At least
stick to the rules.

Not sure how you're approaching the criticism here. If you believe to
anthropomorphize God is inconsistent with theism (as your first statement
seemed to imply), I point out the doctrine of the incarnation to counter that.
Now, the historicity of the incarnation is another matter. You already
decided its an impossibility...so what's the point? :) But if you won't
argue with belief in God, why is the idea of an incarnation so impossible?
