That settles his religion, which was never in doubt. I just don't know a poltically correct way to say "muslim coloured skin."

Middle Eastern :P I think he had Light Skin, Look at Mary for example.

Maybe, but how did Mary have white skin? And back in 5 B.C. I don't think women were respected enough to get pregnant and claim they were a virgin over it, and that it was God.

Okay..That's all we can go by for now. No one drew a picture of her during that time. Just look at the their skin Color today. It's light/Fair Skin.

You lost me, I may need clarification.

Islam was founded in the 6th century AD. Muhammad has yet to be born in year zero. I can't believe people do not know that.... Also-Betlehem literally means 'house of bread' in hebrew-it was originally a hebrew village,since Jews were the indegenous people of the land at that time(though under a roman occupation).

You mean slightly darker white people?-Then I agree.... I also believe jesus was red-headed,since red hair and freckles seem to be prevalent in groups of people who remained in the land since the roman occupation(The samaritan community,for one..).He was,also, supposedly a descendant of the judeac royal line-who were known to be mostly red headed.So the christian pictures seem very likely...

They didn't publicly proclaim it. Jesus was the son of Joseph as far as the society at the time was concerned.

Okay. I'll say it-Jesus was white,like his parents,and his cousins and the majority of the citizens of the judeac kingdom.

Oh....Jesus then. He'd look as the Jewish people did then.....olive skin.

So he favors jewish people over other races?

Certainly doesen't look like it...

And its because he was created by whites. You expect a whites to make him black and automaticaly make the black race superior to them in their eyes? Or purple or something?

No one's seen God.

If you're talking about Jesus, he was most likely brown, considering his place of birth. :P

He's white because of the white washing of the dominant culture at the time.

Actually that's a very complex subject....one would have to be schooled in theology to be able to explain it sufficiently..as Catholics are taught they are three beings one God...so the three make up the one but they're different..

[QUOTE="Richymisiak"][QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"][QUOTE="mfp16"] according to christians jesus, the holy spirit, and god are one being.

That doesn't mean they take the same form....

but weren't there points when jesus prayed to god for guidance? so he.. prayed to ... himself? ugh the holy trinity is confusing

He prayed to God the Father....:P
