On Wednesday night Megyn Kelly declared on her Fox News show that both Santa Claus and Jesus were white. Discussing a piece in Slate by Aisha Harris about a black versus white Santa, Kelly that "just because it makes you feel uncomfortable it doesn't mean it has to change."

I like to imagine that Jesus looked like the young Benjamin Netanyahu.
I think it depends on the situation. If Jesus and Santa committed the crime, then they are white. If they were victims, then they are People of Color...
Oh boy, Megyn....duck....
I will need a white Martin Luther King for me to understand the significance of the man.
I didn’t know Bibi had olive skin and looked really Middle Eastern!
Well slap my thigh and call me Shirley!
Here is Jack Webb's assessment of Jesus' race.
She probably thinks God is white too.
She’s nice to look at, sometime nice to listen to, but “Oh, darling!”
Judea = Israel/Middle Eastern = darker
Santa = white (I mean, what black couple enjoys the snow/cold/’elves’ THAT much) /s
Santa being “white” is an ok thought since that whole cargo cult came from Northern Europe. Now the Jesus thing I would stay away, way away. (besides you silly people we all know god looks a lot like Morgan Freeman)
The guy also said Santa could be a transgender person as well.
LOL.
There’s no actual description of Jesus, but I think he would have looked like your average Middle Eastern fellow in his late 20s to early 30s that you’d see nowadays.
One thing I am fairly sure of is that he didn’t look like he just stepped off an airplane from Stuttgart. :)
How do we know that Santa is white Megyn?
Has he been on your show yet?
In the picture of him as a young soldier, he has dark, curly hair and what seems like darker skin than Megyn Kelly or me.
god might look like Morgan Freeman or maybe George Burns
or maybe not, someday I’ll find out for sure
“I like to imagine that Jesus looked like the young Benjamin Netanyahu.”
My image is an older Jackie Mason.
Shepard Smith and Anderson Cooper are yet to weigh in on how they view Santa and Jesus.
Ummm. not really. Jesus was likely a pretty tan Hebrew, and Santa was Greek/Turkish, so also kind of tan.
What nationality/ethnicity was St Nicolas?
QED
But having said that. King David was described as being fair to look at and ruddy in complexion. Which set him apart.
