Do you know it was White people that decided to put a face to the name...?
Apparently 'in His image' was only about love, not physicality.
Which God are we on about that has a beard?
Brahma is depicted in many old imagery as bearded, as is Zeus, The Jade Emperor, Yuanshi, Yahweh/Abraham, Ahura mazda, Enki and even though the druids worshiped nature when building symbols images such as the green man would mainly be bearded. Obatala is also depicted at times as a bearded old man as well as a young man.
Can only think of sun worshipers, those that follow nana-buluku or gaia, and animistic worship that disgards the concept.
Buddha is never bearded, but then he is not a god but a person who has reached a state of enlightenment where the physical form has transended and as such can be depicted in many forms
I do not speak of one god when I say beardy bastard, as creationism is not limited to just catholicism and christianity and honestly genesis is nicked from several older religion from throughout Asia.
Though you are correct only christianity and Islam tout the"in his own image" meaning that we look like him
