The Resurrection

Which once has attributes that are supernatural and beyond humanity so once merely having a physical form isn't a refutation. It's you who apparently doesn't understand what their talking about if this isn't obvious to you.

Exactly; I'm glad you're beginning to understand.

OK, now try "man" and "cheese grater".

Then try "deity" and "mortal".

Funny thing about gods, they don't die. At least not at the hands of mere mortals. Famous for it. Sadly, you have a "man-god" that died at the hands of a couple of smelly Roman centurions. I mean that's simply embarrassing. They're second level monsters, barely above giant rats. Two hit dice, three tops.

Are we doing idols and graven images? Yours doesn't. Well, best 2 out of 3 anyway and the odd one out got himself corpsified, so does that even count?

Being human, we are constrained to represent the gods we create in some physical form or other. But this doesn’t make the gods in any way equivalent to the physical representation.

RE: The Resurrection
Since deities are defined arbitrarily and subjectively, then of course this alone sets them apart from humans, who exist as an objective fact. 

Arguing about how deities are defined, is not unlike arguing about whether mermaids are slippery to the touch, and smell of the sea.

Neither thing is a dealbreaker.
