I agree with CSfilm's sarcasm. I honestly don't believe that the the earth has moved that much farther away from the sun in 2000 years to cause people's skin colour to significantly lighten. . .and what the does the thread poster mean when she say's that the less sun one sees the more pale ones skin? Yeah, it is true that if a white person would stay indoors during the summer he/she wouldn't get much of a tan, but I don't think this has any bearing in arguing why Jesus is portrayed as white nowadays. Maybe he always was. Perhaps he was Arab. I don't know.
