Title: What color was Jesus Christ?
Post by sirmoonie on May 21st, 2008 at 7:00pm
It has become the most pressing theological issue of our times, and we here at RO are always on the cutting edge.  So what color was the world's first immaculately conceived man?

He was a Jew. From Nazareth. And He is God. And man.

Those are answers to a different poll.

I've never heard of him being anything other than white or black, so I'd prefer not to include "none of the above."  And write in answers just encourage heathens and detract from the integrity of the poll.  My polls are all about integrity.

Being from Bethlehem, Israel, my guess is that he'd of looked Israeli.

White? He wasn't British or European and I've yet to read he was from Africa, so that’s the theory he was black out the window.

Please keep in mind that his conception was immaculate, making the physical location of his birth and the tribe/culture in which he was raised more or less irrelevant with respect to his race.  Basically, you never know what color an immaculatto is going to be until you see him or her.

Well, if you read His book, in Isaiah 53:2, it says..."He hath no form nor comliness; and when we shall see Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him."

So, it says he's Jewish and that he's not especially attractive {I think that was decided at the dawn of the world, so that people would not worship Him because of his looks, but because of who He is}.

All the pictures we grew up with of Him being a beautiful, white-looking man, were all just artistic fantasy...

Having said all that, I realize that you probably weren't being very serious with your poll choices.... ;) Guess I was the one who made it that way.... :-?

Yep, that’s what I think too.

I don't actually buy the whole Immaculate Conception thing. My belief is that there WAS a Jesus, a person who many, many followed and believed passionately in, yet so many of the mystical aspects I'm sceptical about.

Everybody knows Jesus was a white man with anywhere from dark blond to medium brown hair (I guess Christ was subject to summer sun highlights, too, even though he was divine) and blue to green eyes. We know this because of all the paintings of him were like this. Must be true.

God must have believed the whole part about wasted seed and decided he would waste nothing because...why... he wouldn't even use sperm! This would make for a strange DNA profile, though. I can just imagine Maury's face upon opening that brown envelope. Mary....you ARE the mother....AND father... :aimama

I think Jesus was probably a darker kind of guy - sort of Moroccanish in appearance.

Please consider that he was the first person to go around calling people "brother."  I mean, I'm not try to sway my own poll - heaven forbid - I'm just saying is all.

I would think not. Adam was fashioned from clay and Eve was made from the left overs. How the hell would God know about bellybuttons at that point?

The first to have bellybuttons would be Cain and Abel as they had the whole uterine/umbilical/placental experience.

The really perverse irony with Mormons is that while there is compelling evidence that Jesus was black, you have Mormons running around trashing real Christianity all the while purporting to worship a guy who they wouldn't even let be a pee-wee Deacon in some demented backwater Provo outpost because of the color of his skin.  

Truly, is there a more ridiculous bunch of people on Earth than Willard Romney and his Mormons?  Name one.  I dares ya!

Mormons with a violent streak, in other words.

I disagree, Will.  While the Islamics you referred to are whacked, damgerous, and devoid of humanity, their existence at least makes some bit of sense.  There is absolutely no reason I can understand why anyone living in a free, expansive, idea rich country like the United States would chose to be a Mormon.  Its an absurdity.

He hung out with whores, fucked a few, but didn't pimp them, so he's obviously white. Knowing he was aJew means he probably swung a discount fuck in there...
If we find out he pimped, then we know he was black!!!

He will lose my vote too, which will be too bad because, as ANYONE knowledgeable knows, McCain is the most talented, experienced, and most principled conservative politician running for Prez in the last 50 years.  I'd hate to see him make such a piss poor move just to appease a bunch of media yacks.
