Metta -- I have to agree

All any of us can really do is offer food for thought.

I don't think I can change anyone's mind

that change comes from inside themselves... I don't think anyone can change anyone else's mind either... we can be a catalyst - but we can't do it ourselves

JanesOpinion -- probably the biggest influence in convincing the world that

Jesus was a white man came from a famous and widespread depiction by a Swedish artist. In this picture which all of us have seen, Jesus had blondish hair, white skin and blue eyes ...depicted with blonde hair and blue eyes by a Swedish painter, go figure.

Love it!

I'm rather certain the only way Jesus looked Caucasian was if he had some sort of albino type genetic abnormality.

David1Spirit --- thank you

The current state of affairs in terms of religion and religious beliefs worldwide is a sad comedy. Like how stupid is the human animal?

Talion - I couldn't resist when I saw the picture

and why not? We are fairly certain that Jesus was not caucasian.

Let Jesus come back looking like that if He wants to. If He thought He his was crucified the first time...

Very Good!

I would love to see a skinheads reaction to that picture!

And you are right on the money about the example of God looking down. He would just cry while watching all his beautiful children killing each over who they believe he loves the most!

avant-garde - it really is a sad state of affairs when you sit back and

take an objective look at it. One side of the globe wants to repel the "infadel" while the other side of the globe has a distorted sense of entitlement. If there was a God of traditional definition, I can envision him looking down an all of this nonsense and pounding his forehead with his fist.
