Was Jesus black?

[MasterSwordUltima]

What Jesus are we talking about exactly?

Jesus Guerrero Santos?

Jesus was Israeli, meaning he likely had a medium-toned skin. So while the traditional depiction of Jesus is likely wrong, it is also likely wrong that he had dark skin.

But then again, what difference does it really make?

I had never thought about it until a friend of mine had pointed out what you also just did... location, location, location. There's not a lot of white people around that area. There's more of a chance of him being black than white. But try to get a bunch of white uptight Kings and such to follow a black man (and I'm not talking about the police doing the following ).

Then again, my friend says that Jesus was a Mexican (he's a little biased- yes, biased; not racist). Of course he says this while laughing. His wife is the one who thinks he was more Israeli-area-ish as well. Which makes more sense.

Natalie Portman is Isreali

She had popped in mind before I had said "none". Besides, for me to assume that there weren't any white people in that area would be rather ignorant of me. That's why I assumed "not that many". It's also why I laugh when all those idiot racists have stupid signs like "Jesus is white" or "God is white". I'm also guessing that they think that the "Little Church of Bethlahem" down the street is where Jesus was really born, too.

As a sidenote- Natalie Portman is pretty hot. I mean how many of us watched V for Vendetta nd still thought "Yup, I still would, even her without the hair."

[odinson]

Where have you seen people with signs like that? Natalie Portman is hot, not too many girls out there who still look good with a shaved head.

<3 Natalie Portman. Girls with shaved heads are awesome~

[jerome]

I had a friend of mine back in high school and she shaved her head and pulled it off rather well.
I knew someone else that did it, and all it did was show just how ugly she truly was. This may sound a bit harsh, but you'd have to know her to know what I mean. Ugly isn't just looks in her case.

Pink may not be Israeli, or have a completely shaved head, but she falls in that same short hair catagory as Ms. Portman.

If Jesus was around now, would he still have long hair and a beard? Or would we have "Metro-Jesus"? To qoute Ray Stevens:
"Would Jesus wear a Rolex on his television show?"

[odinson]

I personally think Pink's face is kind of ugly, but to each his own I suppose.

I don't think Jesus would bother to follow the modern fashion trends, he'd probably just dress like he was poor.

Pink is fugly as hell. X:

On the subject of Jesus, I guess I agree with Odinson. Maybe he'd have dreadlocks~
