"It's very important because (the film) is going to provide an image of Jesus for African-Americans that is no longer under the control of whites," says Stephenson Humphries-Brooks, an associate professor of religious studies at New York's Hamilton College ..."
Obviouly image is more important than truth to this guy. And to think he is an Associate Professor of Religious Studies.
I dunno: I live in Cali and I think most of you are nuts :)
Not Swedish, but not negroid either.
Actually his feet were like bronze;
But His head and Hair were white;
"13and among the lampstands was someone "like a son of man, dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest.
14 His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire.
15 His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. 16In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance.
.....stastistics would not prove you out.....
A little New Agey, don't you think?
I agree. Dark skin is probably closer to reality than the white Jesus usually portrayed.
.....including Jim Robinson who started this site?.... Most top rated scientists and technological advances by far are developed in Calif....Silicon Valley....etc.....don't let your emotion get in the way of rational thinking.....you just hate the libs here.....as I do....but I differentiate between them and the state as a whole
LOL!!!
Amen. BTTT!
Many of the Hindu gods are not human. Ganesh for example.
.....Good Lord.....you don't like the liberals here as I don't...nor the crap mainly in So Cal...and you generalize to the whole state....?????......that is just absurd.. Historically this is the "smartest" state when you look at universities and innovation, invention and business development......
If humans were created in the image of God, then it's perfectly ok for Blacks to picture Christ as Black, Whites to picture him as white, Asians to picture him as Asian, etc.
Would you reject the gift of salvation offered by Christ, if somehow his earthly heritage failed to meet your expectations?
