Laugh all you want, but there is a good number of people who believe Jesus is Black.
Of course, I know that some will be mad that Jesus was not depicted with blond hair and blue eyes. Just goes to show that no one has the market cornered on bigotry.

In the book of Revelations, Jesus is described with WHITE woolly hair. Some of these groups leave out the word 'white' and just refer to the woolly hair ie: black nappy hair, which makes Him black.

"Laugh all you want, but there is a good number of people who believe Jesus is Black."Well, the truth is Jesus wasn't black or white. Living in the Mediterranean, he probably looked more like a well-tanned Arab.

Laugh all you want, but there is a good number of people who believe Jesus is Black. I do think that he should have been portrayed by someone with more semitic features, for more accuracy.
