Quoted: He looks Arab. Jesus was a Jew. View Quote You do know that in the First Century, the Jews and Arabs were basically the Scots and Irish, in terms of ethnic distance. They are both of the main branches of the Semitic peoples. It's not until fairly later, in the Diaspora, when the Jews started banging European and North African chicks/dudes. |

Quoted: Seriously, though... uncanny resemblance to these very, very old images. It's a breakthrough! https://media1.s-nbcnews.com/j/MSNBC/Components/Photo/_new/101208-tech-jesus%20family.grid-6x2.JPG https://i.pinimg.com/originals/2b/23/a4/2b23a48eaccb9ccaf9180d0cd8408f21.jpg View Quote |

Quoted: Last I remember, anthropologists were claiming that race was bullshit, and there was no such thing. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: @Bohr_Adam Forgive my anthropology classes. When I went through college, we were taught that the three basic sub-divisions of race were "Caucasoid, Negroid, and Mongoloid"-- and every other variation resulted from some deviation or admixture of those primaries. I'm quite certain that there is likely more developments to that viewpoint, and if I were in that field I would likely be up to speed on them. As it is, my choice of term from the framework that I drew from seemed to be adequate for my point. Which is PC-bullshit. We can't have an intelligent discussion on anything in academia as long as it is clouded with PC ideology. Oddly enough, race exists when we discuss BLM or when we discuss "institutional racism"-- or when those anthropologists' employers give preference or penalties to applicants attempting to enroll based on their race. They are asking us to ignore what we actually see in practice. It amazes me that we see a complete disconnect when discussing humans and any other living organism. We all know that all dogs are the same species. However, no one disputes that there are different breeds with different characteristics. Now, replace the word "breed" with the word "race." Across the world, we see expression of different traits just as we see different expression of traits in practically every higher form of life. |

Quoted: Most of the pictures of Jesus I’ve seen in churches, literature, and art works all make him look like a 1970s southern rock guitarist. Pale skin, long-ish well-kept hair, pale eyes, and a glazed, blissful look on his face. Is he going to deliver the Sermon, or the Guitar Solo, on The Mount?

When the romans came to arrest him, Judas had to point him out from the other jewish disciples because he didn't look any different from them. https://i.imgur.com/VjIEiAA.jpg View Quote And thus I heard the most offensively stupid thing uttered in GD this year.

yep probably what he looked like of course God being God could choose to look like any culture he wanted to if he wanted
It's like the T Rex all this time they were running around the bottom of a flooded world like crabs using their tails to propel them like iguanas in the ocean but white men make them fierce land animals fighting King Kong - if you weren't there you can't be 100% sure |

That depiction is just artistic license as to what their "vision" was.

View Quote None of those images can be correct. Only the ones that show Jesus as looking like he came from Sweden (light hair, Nordic type features) can possibly be correct. That sarcasm guys. Anyone with half a brain would be able to deduce that Jesus looked like most Jews in the area at the time, with darker complexion and hair. |

Without going down a rabbit hole about genetics... did this "Caucasian" concept not include Arabs, Jews, Persians, Indians, and all matters of other groups that make it wholly irrelevant to the question of how "white" Jesus was relative to Northern Europeans? |

Across the world, we see expression of different traits just as we see different expression of traits in practically every higher form of life. You are arguing with a strawman. The 18th century idea of race involved three (later 4) separate lines of evolution that only more recently began interbreeding. Recognizing that this is I correct does not mean that population groups do not share traits in common. It does, however, dismiss the idea hat there is a "pure" breed/race standard, and anything else is "mixed." That, is absurd. Humans are not dogs. There is no kennel club, let alone a magical point in history, dictating breed standards. |
