+852 Pictures of Jesus always make him look like a fairly good-looking white man, but since he was from Jerusalem he probably didn't look anything like that. He would look more Middle Eastern. amirite?

http://www.religioustolerance.org/chr_jcfa.htm Haha "His height would have been on the order of 5' 1"; he would have weighed about 110 pounds." I mean, it's just a guess, but it's an educated one. And people were smaller then but that's hilarious! I'm way taller than Jesus!

are you saying Middle Easterners can't be good-looking...?e

by Anonymous 13 years ago

No not at all! I was just saying that he is portrayed as attractive even though there's no evidence that he is. People want a hot god haha.

Dude I already explained that I wasn't being racist before you even commented. And I hate it when people see racism in everything.

who cares if he was middle eastern or white...? and who cares if he was good looking? He's Jesus. He can do whatever he wants because he's awesome.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I guess, but who knows? I mean, he wasn't exactly that ordinary. I mean, God sort of had a part of making him... i guess. i mean, religion is a bit of a touchy subject

First of all christians aren't racist. People can interpret the way Jesus looks anyway they want. Just like Santa. Most people see him as a fat white man but others see him as any other race.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Santa is based off of Saint Nicholas, who was actually an obese white man.

No you can't...Jesus was a real person, so you can't just interpret the way he looks any way you want. You can't interpret how I look any way you want...i look a certain way, and that's just a fact. Judging from where Jesus was born, he and Mary were both Middle-Eastern looking. White people just identified with a white person so they pretend he's white...but that really doesn't make sense. Other races also acts as though he belongs to their race. But they's almost certainly wrong.

Ok, its not like anyone knows, anyway!! Why are there always posts about religion-type things now?!!!

I sorta like imagining a black or middle eastern Jesus =] that'd just add to his already infinite coolness factor

Actually it depends on where the artwork is from. A couple hundred years ago they looked down on any non-whites. They thought Jesus was too good to be colored. My teacher has a painting of a middle-eastern Mary.

sigh... Middle Eastern is white...

No...They're asian

Not when they're applying to college. According to colleges, being middle eastern is the equivilant of being white, not asian.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

That's strange...but they definitely fall into the broad umbrella of being asian. And middle easterners have a very distinctive look...you can totally tell if someone is middle eastern, you know? They don't look white.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Not really. My friend is Middle Eastern and his college put him as Asian.

Who knows, he could be buff. I mean, he was a carpenter. And carpenters at His time cut trees and carried them.

There's actually a Wikipedia article about this.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_of_Jesus

Considering where He lived at the time period He did, He could've been anything. Except a weakling. He was a carpenter and walked around everywhere (not a skinny little guy that Catholics always portray Him as)
