    In our current state, we've no point of reference for any archetypal Godly figure other than text (today with bibles) or animism (older religions)

In fact, we don't have any but ourselves: we've met no creature as sapient as ourselves; perhaps, only yet. This would be the only reason it's said in the Bible that God created humans in his own image: we have no other image to turn to.
