I have been going to seminary for a while, and Heyward is very knowledgeable as well. We want to answer any and all of your questions concerning the tenets and beliefs of Christianity: Who Christ is, why suffering exists, who God is, what is the nature of God, why Jesus had to die, is the Bible accurate, what does the Bible say, etc.

We want you to be comfortable with talking about Christianity, we will not try to argue our assert our beliefs upon you, we will just state them. Anything you want to ask, we will answer without judgement. If we don't hold up to our promises here, I am sorry.

Consuming mind altering substances clouds your judgement and may lead you to sin. Pleasure is not inherently a bad thing by any means, but it should come in moderation

but genesis 1:29 states: Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.

if this is true then why would god be against weed?

God is not against weed, but he constantly reminds us to be aware of our actions and their consequences.

1. So why did God send himself posing as his own child instead of going there himself to teach everyone?

The trinity is a huge concept to grasp, and quite literally a mystery to human beings. We cannot understand how the one God can be multiple beings. It doesn't make sense, but why should God bend to our logic? In my view, I do think this gives Christianity a lot of credit. Who could ever think of this concept out of their own mind? No one. Anyways, I'll try to explain it how I try to understand it.
Have you ever heard that light is both a particle and a wave at the same time?
So light is both of these:

at the same time.

How is this possible? We have no clue, it is only our observations that confirm this nature of light, no type of logic can explain this, it just has to be accepted. Such is the nature of God.

God is the Father, the Son, and the Spirit at the same time. He is three separate beings, but yet one unique being. As like light is both a wave and a particle, so God is three things packaged in one Divine being.

So, to answer your question... God did come down to earth in the nature of the Son (the redeemer), to be punished by the Father (the creator, and judge of creation), only to later send his Spirit (the sustainer) to dwell in us and convict believers and heal them. All these are the same God, but in three different natures.‏
