Christian Racists

Shouldn't, no , can't exsist becasue from the area Jesus cam from he should of been black although he is always portrayed as a white man

So if there racists technincally should they be doing a constant sin

I suppose that Jesus is portrayed as white so more people can relate (although you can say Jesus portrays all colours and all nations)

Shouldn't he of been portrayed black becasue he was (*technincally*) and it may of portrayed black people in better light

😕

Jesus was Jewish and looked like a Jewish man and had olive skin. Judas said to the temple guards that the one is kiss is the one you will need to arrest. because Jesus looked like a most Jewish men. He was never white that is just a European point of view.

mhmmmm,i know so then technically, racist christians are talking bullshit because one of the people they are suppose to respect was black

Jesus was never black and if he was the Jews would have killed him or forced him out of his country because the law says that foreigners must leave because they bring idols with them and it would ruin Israel. if they were visiting maybe for the passover that would be different.

Black is a person of colour and someone having "olive" skin to me is black, im not gonna call them coloured

no Jews don't have black skin, they look like many Arab people, the only difference is they have a little lighter skin.

Exactly, black people call all people of colour black i'm not african dark, but im still black, so i got into the habit of calling people black whether they are or not

there are so many people of different or gins, it is hard to describe them.

Exactly, which is probabaly why black people just call people who arelike, not white, black

Jesus was black, he was an ethiopian (Geographically, Ethiopia was in the same place as Isreal at the time of Jesus' coming), and the first recovered painting of a biblical figure portrays Mary as black.

This should be in the religion forum.

true, white people are the same.

Black people came from the Central and South Africa, Jesus was not born there them he is not black, hes probably were more like Arab people. Its still wrong I think, portrait him as if he were European alike, I mean white. Anway, thats so unimportant, I think that religion should be more about mmm.... God?

That wasn't my point anyway, and so am i not black, considering that i come from jamacia/Barbados

I think i am, i would know, being black

Yeah just the fact that the Church has taken the time to change the image of Jesus means a lot to me... But does the skin color of Jesus really matter. Just listen to one thing he says, if he is the son of god or not does not matter, what he says still makes sence.

Jesus is not black, he was like the Jewish people. one day the discovery channel did a portrait of what Jesus would look like and it turned out to be a Jewish person. plus back then Jews acted gentiles and anyone who wasn't jewish is a gentile.

true

But 2000 years ago people were not so spread, the probalility of Jesus being not Arab alike, is very little( and unimportant). And if he is not Arab alike, why he should be black, he could be japanese, mongol, indian, european, or something else.

YOUV'E TOTALLY MISSED THE POINT OF THE THREA, because of a bad wording on my part, sorry

So, if my skin has color, I am black? Well, my skin is red, so I'm black too?
