    Is it just be or are you tired of seeing Jesus depicted as white. And the whole people didn't vote for Jindal b/c he was dark skinned.

    Idiots I call them.

    Jesus was dark skinned.

    You have no idea how Jesus was colored. Semitic people range from lily white to mahogany brown.

    Baring there are exceptions to every rule. Let me assume that Jesus was part of the majority.

    Ok, I let you make a wild-ass guess. What in the world is your point?

    Majority = dark skinned.

    Look, dark-skinned is subjective. Compared to my Viking genes, a Cajun like SabanFan is dark-skinned. To him, a Mexican is dark-skinned. To the Mexican, Bobby Jindal is dark-skinned. To Jindal, MASTERMIND is dark-skinned. To MASTERMIND, Muddy-Waters is dark skinned.

    What is your point?

    I'd have to think that Jesus was probably dark-skinned, perhaps Middle Eastern-type skin tone?

    Jesus was probably dark skinned compared to the majority Caucasian white.

    Skin tone of a Jewish person from his age in time.

    The Bible states, he had hair like wool and feet where bronze.

    Take it for what you want.

    I have no position on this one.

    Red asked a valid question more than once. What's your point?

    Judging by the inflammatory nature of your posts in threads about Christians, I suppose it is a poor attempt to piss off the "whiteys" here. You make a statement that you are tired of Jesus being depicted white, but don't appear to even be a Christian. Do you ever have anything positive to post or are you just generally an unhappy person?

    Does anyone here know what Jesus looked like? Met him before? Does it really matter? The answer is no, but you created a thread to take a shot at people that feel differently than you do about Christianity. I can see clearly why you are not a Christian. :insane:
