"FF, what colour was Jesus?"

Or God for that matter. He made us in His image and the earliest Humans were from Asia, so they must have been yellow/brown/whatever skinned. Yet, every Bible printed, every religious image in the Western world shows him as a white man. Why is that? Do you think it could be some subtle form of manipulation for us Honkys? The whole region of Bethlehem, Jerusalem, etc., is in the Middle East area, and I don't see no white folk about. Could it be that the Bible my old school gave me and forced me to learn from was lying to me?

My personal favourite theory, that explains everything about the man called Jesus, is that he was a time-traveller. Think about it. Some mystical bloke, giving it all "that" with extra sass - I'd be pretty lairy if I'd just time-travelled. Healing the sick with modern and future medicine. And he's white. The first time-traveller (if the End of Days hasn't come like you're cheerily predicting) will probably be some white-bred American bloke, so he'll be well-versed in the Bible. It's a good theory, don't knock it. Expect to see the film. Soon. Starring Mark Wahlberg as Jesus. And William Shatner as God. Probably.

Have you seen how big the Good News is? How much debating is ahead of us?

Ooooh...Nice! Wish I'd thought of that...

Forest Fan - you've told us all the 'good news' as you put it. ANything further said on the matter is harassment.

The 'good news' being that your all-loving God is so petty and insecure that he will condemn the race he created and bestowed unconditional love on to eternal suffering and torment if we don't do exactly as he says.

For fu...you keep using the anology of a strict but loving father. The thing is, a good father recognises when his children are grown up. Your God seems to want to keep us cowed and afraid.



Archangel, that did indeed answer my question; you are exactly the sort of Christian who'd encourage a family funday of book-burning, aren't you?

Because once the Tribulation takes place, the believers in Christ will be raptured, which is why we are trying to tell you the Good News.

Right - so if we'll all find out then, why try to 'convert' us with your futile attempts?

It's an answer to what Light answered on his post at 8:41.

What exactly has that got to do with avoiding questions?

Maybe this will clear up my view on the subject, Light:

We'll find out at the "end of the age" (as it's called), won't we?
