WTF does it matter what color Jesus was?
Does his color make what he said any more or less relevant????? Well to neo fucking Nazis, skinheads, the KKK and fucking prejudiced assholes on both sides I guess it would.
However, to the people that truly follow HIM and try to the best of their ability to live the way he tried to teach, color and looks are as unimportant as whether HE was right or left handed.
It's what HE TAUGHT that matters, nothing else. To argue about what he looks like is about the stupidest and most inconsequential thing that one can do.
Accept what HE taught, try to live by what HE taught, not how some organized profit, political machine wants you to (Jesus was against any political machinations, he believed man's purpose was to help fellow men, not to rule over them, instill fear into them or take arms toward another).
Believe him to look anyway you like if you truly need him to look a certain way in order to believe. Hell, if you need to believe Jesus or your God are women..... so be it.
To me Jesus is pure light...... that's it nothing more, no human form, just pure light.
On a side note, I can almost guarantee the second people stop believing in organized religions and stop donating monies to these "religious" political machines, religion will be outlawed by any and all governments.
Jesus, Buddha, God, the Mythological deities of Greece, Rome, Norse, China, and so on, were all formed and drawn, sculpted, etc. to look like the targeted followers. That's what the people had to go by. But the looks of whichever you choose to believe should mean nothing..... the true value is believing what the deity you choose to follow taught.

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
