First of all, there are secularist liberals on this thread who feign outrage over Jesus being called white. Well, if you're a secularist, what do you care what color Jesus' skin was? You'd get more outraged over what someone says about Santa than Jesus.
Alas, a plethora of double standards to behold...
Nobody is outraged.
And yet you keep starting threads on the matter.
I think that's a little over the top for political debate, sir or madam.Talking about a "fictional" Santa Claus on Fooooooooooooooooox News was such a huge deal he had to make a follow up thread on it..
what a life, or lack of one maybe
just petty and shallow
I hope you get a bag of aids for xmas...you fucking troll and waste of life.
baloney. the truth is you, as a typical uneducated graduate of American school have no idea about how people of the first century ( living in Judea, Galilee and Samaria) looked like.
Im not sure why it matters. But the scriptures say very clearly Christ is white:
*crickets*
Sorry, given where Jesus was from, he was not black, nor dark skinned maybe not even tan skinned. Jesus was born in Nazareth, which is now a predominantly Arab city in Israel. Take Benjamin Netanyahu for example:

Taking away the fact that Benjamin is an Israeli, anyone would perceive him to be white. Given that Jesus was born in the same area of the Middle East as Netanyahu was, one can deduce that Jesus' skin color was probably the same hue as BiBi's. An off white or slightly peach colored white complexion.
Simple deductive reasoning.
Simple lack of knowledge. All of Netanyahu's grandparents were from Belarus, Lithuania and Poland.

So you say. Benzion Netanyahu was from Poland originally, but lived most of his life in Israel. He met his future wife who was a Palestinian, Tzila Segal. That throws part of your assertion out of the window.

Had we not gone through 2000 years of Diaspora this subject might be a little more straight forward. Ben Netanyahu may have been born in Tel Aviv, but his parents were not. His mother's family name of "Segal" indicates an east European origin. Possibly Russian, Lithuanian, or Romanian. His father was born in Poland.
Unfortunately, modern Jews are not a direct image of native Palestinian Jews of 2000 years ago. Consider these other individuals who were also born in Israel. Clearly, they have a different look than Netanyahu.

Natalie Portman.
Natalie Portman.
Was she born in Israel? Did not know that. Have to admit, when I think about her I'm not typically thinking about her past.![]()
Ok since you chose to dog the question, explain why it is insane to say they are white?
I will remind you again that Saint Kick was a Greek, and Greeks are white. And that Jesus was born in Israel so was either white or off white.
If Greeks are White, and Palestinians are White, then Mexicans are White.
You can't have it both ways. Unless you want to explain which factors separate Mexicans from Semites and Mediterraneans.
Some Mexicans are white.
Im not sure why it matters. But the scriptures say very clearly Christ is white:
And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; (Rev 1:12-14)
Again, why does it matter? He could be black or purple, and yet He would still be the Savior of the World. He would still be the Son of God. He still atoned for our sins.
Again, I don't know why you guys think this is a big deal. Nor why you are so offended that she stated the truth of the matter.
