I just want some insight into the historical Jesus. What did he look like?

What things did he say that can be validated, etc?
They hated on Jeezus, so you think I give a f***?!
Go do research if you want to know. You post the worst lounge topics.

NBA2K, Madden, Maneater, Killing Floor, Sims

At the risk of feeding trolls...

Jesus the historical figure was Jewish, in Galilee. He was probably Sephardic/Mizrahi (modulo the fact that these terms really postdate him).

You might be interested in this article, about a project to reproduce a face "typical" of the people who would have been in Jesus' racial/ethnic group in Galilee around 0 AD.

He wasn't "white," as in Northern-European. He wasn't "black," as in sub-Saharan-African. Like most people in the world, he was neither. Not that races are even defined in some objective, time-invariant way -- sure, different groups of people tend to have certain genes in common, but it all boils down to a data clustering problem (one that happens to have had all kinds of sociological consequences, both tragic and subtle, throughout history and into the present day... To think something like k-means could start a genocide...)
Well there's a theory that Moses was black

Yes. Jesus was black. For real or figuratively. It really makes no difference as to what he said.
[size="2"]I like the Walrus best.
Yep, he was a black Jewish homosexual. I read it on the internets.
Jesus was a native-american woman.

Also, you are the worst thread starter in the history of trolls. You need to vary your crappy thread topics.

do you have sources for this? I'm curious.
