JESUS was OLIVE SKINNED NOT WHITE OR BLACK >.

[woofie]

I always thought Jesus was a Presbyterian

[Paleo Conservative]

I seriously doubt it. How many Jews have you ever seen that were black? Not too many. There's Sammy Davis Junior, Whoopi Goldberg, and Jews from Ethiopia.

If Jews are white, Jesus was white.

[Crispy]

Even if he was black. Does it really matter? This article gives me a headache.

[txzman]

No, no. Jesus was only a Presbyterian in a Lyle Lovett and Robert Earl Keen song :)

[Paleo Conservative]

I always thought Jesus was a Presbyterian

That reminds me of the Jewish comdian commenting about Goldwater getting the Republican nomination for President in 1964, "I always knew the first Jewish president would be an Episcopalian."

LOL. Behtlehem is in Northern Africa?

I saw Khaddafi on TV and he did NOT look black.

[MCH]

Yeah, just another one of those racist movies. I was just as PO'd when The Ten Commandments showed Moses as a white guy, when everyone knows he was black. Same nonsense in Ghandi. Same for the movie JFK. Everyone knows JFK was black! This list goes on and on. Those Hollywood scum are constantly putting out "historical" movies showing famous people who are supposedly white, or other races, when in reality all the famous people from history were black.

Rev. Jesse Peterson is on our side. The side of common sense.

[cyborg]

Since no one was alive back then, I really don't care myself.

[Gal.5:1]

Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Judah,..........David............Jesus was Jewish. Is Bible reading really that rare now?

[EGPWS]

The New Black Panther Party and other black activists plan to stage protests nationwide over the controversy.

That being the case, I just have to see it!

Fanatical liberal groups protesting it can only mean that it is a very accurate and powerful movie!

[abishai]

I'm still trying to find Rev 13:20. From what Bible is this?

At least we know that Adam wasn't a white Southern man. Have you ever tried to take a rib from a white Southerner?

Since blue-eyed, blonde and red-headed Jews are not that rare today, geneticists assume some gene-mixing through intermarriage between Jews and Northern Europeans in which Judaism was assumed by the gentile half of the union. In Jesus' time, without such mixng, it is a reasonable assumption that the Hebrews were darker than many Jews of today, but not black.

[texpat72]

The 13th chapter of Revelation has only 18 verses!

[E=MC²]

Jews in the first century were black???

[cyborg]

Well if Jesus was black, he'd be a black conservative. More reasons to hate Jesus now.
