1.) Why is Jesus always depicted as a white European when his race is not from that region?

2.) Why during the supposed time of Jesus no Jewish historian mentioned him?

3.) Why aren't there any Roman court records of his crucifixtion?

4.) Why is the only account of Jesus the New Testament, which the first books appeared at least 60 years after his death, written by people generations later who never knew him?

The best tool on the internet.

By the way AD is the birth of christ. So by looking at the dates of most of the new testiment these books were written shortly,within 25 to 50 years after his death. That is the same or one generation different.

In the early church works he doesn't look white. It is also called creative listence, since no one know what he exactly looks like.

He's Jewish.
Now tell me what most jews look like.
The jews I have seen are fairly light skinned.

The image of Jesus has changed over 2000 years. But it doen't matter because christianity has nothing to do with the physical image of Jesus and all to do with his message.

By the way what does Muhammad look like.

Why can't you make the same argument that the message has changed over 2000 years?

a_joker10 · « **Reply #8 on:** May 05, 2006, 10:22:03 AM »

I forgot to use spell check.
But as I said before the image of Christ that people see is a representation of Jesus and this representation has nothing to do with the Christianity. The person that draws these images has creative licence since there are no exact records like a photograph to use.
In the past royal figures , Caesars, etc. Very rarely looked much like their portrait.

The message has changed in some aspects over 2000 years.
The Roman Catholic church does not over see all of Christiano any more.
However, there are some core beliefs that have not changed. The birth, death and resurrection. The other is thatThe acceptance of Jesus into your life is the only prerequisite to going to heaven.

there..thats what mohammed looks like!

I wouldn't have guessed. HAHA.

There are no pictures of him, because I hear you get killed for drawing him.
But I guess that stops the why does Muhammad look white debate.

1. Toxy, while it's very charming, I don't think I really know you well enough to have compenious discussions with you about your pooping habits

2. Yes, it's true. I've also seen hair clips and berrettes, but that look is very tacky, and usually only seen on very geeky people.

3. Someone told me once that when you see only one shoe in the middle of the road, it probably belonged to a professional assassin. Apparently after they've wacked somebody, they get rid of anything that might tie them to the crime, soooo...throw their shoes out the window, one at a time, miles from the other on some highway somewhere...

I've always disliked this statement. What about little African pygmies living in the jungle at the time of Christ? There is no way they could possibly accept Jesus without ever hearing his name. And to send people to eternal fire simply because they were born in the wrong place and time doesn't sound "omnibenevolent." Care to explain?

It's an irrational legend perpetuated by people who are in some need of psychological comfort in their lives.

All paths lead to the one God. The God of Abraham. Christianity, Judaism and Islam.

God judges all on judgement day.Only God knows who will be going to heaven.
That is why he is omnibenevolent.
Personally I believe in following Jesus's example and believing in him as he is God. With faith in Jesus I have a path to heaven. If you choose not to, or have never heard of Jesus, then you take your chance at Judgement day.
