Yes, and Jesus was born on the earth.Being Born is only something that happens on Earth...
Angels were created too.If you read Hebrews 1 you will see that Angels where already present and days already existed when the Father said to Jesus, "Today I have become a Father".
As for people that believe Jesus is created, you guys have many different understanding of the same words. King David was Jesse's Firstborn son, and the Firstborn of Israel. That doesnt mean he was the First Israelite to be born...??? Jesus is the Firstborn of all things in that he is heir to it all. Not only did he Create everything that was created, he is also heir to it all in being the Firstborn. Jesus is not "First created" as you want the word "Firstborn" to mean.
John 1:3 says Nothing that was created happened apart from Jesus. This alone should be enough to show you Jesus cannot be created. However, your image of God is showing and image that is Created... You have a faulty Image. Is one of the Mirrors Broken... (I had to say it)
Jesus is the Firstborn of all creation means he is heir to all of Creation. No need to go beyond this and make him part of creation because of the lack of the Jewish term "Firstborn". Women are never called Firstborn because only males could hold the Title because its a heir ship title. (Unless there are no brothers alive)
I know why the JW believe Jesus was Created and then created all things himself. But why do you believe this? Why did God need to Create his Creator? (BTW - Jews would never believe this. That someone other that God himself created) Old testament verses that says God was alone and no one was with him nor helped him. Meaning whoever created is God.

I don't think you understood what I said. Are you familiar with 'new man' concept? Whenever God Manifests Himself through His revelation a new civilization is created. A new humanity is created, because His revelation is like putting a new cloth replacing the old cloth. Putting on a new way of life, replacing the old ways. When Moses came, through the revelation and guidance of God a new generations of human was created. Moses was 'the first' of that new generation. The first creation of the generation.
Likewise, when Jesus came, through the new Revelation of God, a new generations of men was created. Jesus was the First of that creation, hence 'the first born of creation'. The term equivalently can be applied to all Manifestations of God, such as Noah, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad and Baha'u'llah, for through the appearance of These Mirrors of God, the World of humanity has been created, and each one them is the First, and The Last of the Creation.
