    Except Jesus is depicted as black, asian etc depending on where in the world they are worshiping him. Everyone in this thread is revising history to match with their contemporary race ideologies instead of just saying “Hmm maybe Jesus is depicted as white because that’s what made sense to the iconographers in Greece” One of the earliest icons of Jesus showed him as tawny with a robe and he looked Roman. People also assume he must be brown or black even though there are people in the levant that look super white. The reality is no one knows. This is a stupid thread.

    Why would your beliefs affect my beliefs at all?

    What beliefs? You haven’t stated, much less justified, them.

    I’m just showing that belief and hope are not dependent on religion.

    You’re showing that you can string words together to form a sentence but not much else.
