I dunno for sure, but if some sort of god made itself flesh and then proceeded to torture and kill itself in a gruesome way as a favor to others, I’d be steering clear of that weird shit.
Especially if part of that same god’s shtick included commandments to stop jerking off, treat gay people poorly, burn witches, and to not shave.
This sounds like one of those things you read about in a book entitled “Weird Gods We’re All Glad No One Pays Any Attention Too Now That We’ve Invented Agriculture And Society.”
