Proud To Be An Atheist.
I am a non-believer - that is I don't have any beliefs what-so-ever. No that doesn't make me an atheist, nor an agnostic - they both have belief.
I've always found the whole idea of just 'believing' in something (anything) all just a little bit freaky. But as I get older I seem to be coming to realisation that actually I'm the freaky one for having no beliefs...
It's a strange world we live in...

Question. Why do people think Jesus is white? I mean, the guy lived in a middle-eastern region, so should have some colour in his cheeks right? Yes, people say that "look at Israelites and Palastinians, they're not exactly dark-skinned," but the point is, Jesus is portrayed as white honkey. Really white. I mean, that motherfucker would seriously burn in the sun.
Not meaning to be disrespectiful, but beeng's afrojesus picture just brought that up in my mind.
Answer to the initial qestion: 100%
Christ Jesus was dark skinned and more thn likely had wavy hair. He was a Jew who lived in the desert. It's the old school racist whiteys that have the "biker" Jesus pictures. Don't want a brown skinned man as their savior.
I am whiter than white, and think the pictures are funny. I don't care what color He is, just glad He came through for me.
Nope, never will be and never wanted to be
To put it simply, a follower of Christ.Nemesis-SBS- wrote:

Believe what you want we all aren't getting into heaven anyway from what I was told by my Witness co worker, supposedly its reserved for 144,000 people or 12,000 from the 12 tribes. The rest of us are SOL.
Personally I don't know what I am I was baptised catholic but never have been to church in my life, too many hipocrites in there telling you to do this and don't do that when they all get busted picking up hookers and molesting children. Hell I might lean more towards Wicca than anything else judging by what I think I believe..
I do agree that intelligent design is all a bunch of BS I just don't buy that crap no way no how..
Darwin is right! Science will set you free!! :0

As far as the appearance of Christ, I am going strictly from what people from that era looked like. I'd say if you were African, with two African parents, odds are you'd be a tad dark, no? Plus, have you ever seen a pale carpenter?
As far as who is right, and who is wrong.... we'll see who's right in the end. I'm not trying to convert anyone, just giving my 2 pesos.
I was being sarcastic about the whole "Seen Jesus" thing. I hope you were about that intelligent design thing. Even if you weren't I still don't buy it All the carpenters I have seen here are of mexican decent so no I have not seen a pale carpenter and even white guys turn dark brown in the sun ..so you are probably right.Erkut.hv wrote:

I am....praise God.
Believing in the "big bang" THEORY is like believing that you could take apart the V8 in your chevy, toss all of the parts up in the air and they would come down reassembled as a big ole V8. To me it takes more faith to belive in the "big bang" THEORY than it does to believe in Intelligent Design or more appropriately, Creation.

You could say the same thing about intelligent design. It's a leap of faith. Both are theory's that are not proven.MostHigh wrote:

As for the original question. Yes, i am catholic.
Jesus was not african He was a Semite, That is a person from the coastal Med area, Mostly arab. Anti Semite does not mean Anti Jew. Just the Jews who lived in the Area ( very few ) If you see pictures of Typical Israelies They dont look like Semite ( like Arabs ) becuase they are from Northen Europe ( Hence all the Wars ) Jesus probebly would have look aribic.
I was a simple question the guy asked. a yes or no would have sufficed.

Organized religion sucks. The only thing you need to believe in is yourself, and not rely on some shit a bunch of ass clowns made up.
I`ve heard that one before as well.. Those 144,000 ppl are the jews if I remember right.. (I think it`s bullshit made up by the jews) :pFreezer wrote:

Organised religion, in my opinion, is a bloody load of old taff.
I have beliefs. Probably ones that are considered odd and strange. But most of what I believe comes from the old Druids of England before the Romans came. I could be considered a Pagan, but a little different still.

2. If you who do not believe are wrong.....what have you lost?
