Agreed. I just remember growing up in the church and seeing pics of him being like 6'0 and white with feathered hair. Some people envision that, but I highly doubt he looked like that.

What about him? He was not what I'd considered today as a white man. I don't know what else to tell you.
I'm white, Jesus was Jewish and therefore not white white. I'm good with it, are you ok?

There are tons of Jews who are White people.
Ever hear of David Ben Gurion?

I think you're missing his point. What that was was a compromise that he was most likely Jewish and not black but from the ME area there and probably not what we all consider 'white'

And here rests the issue. Ok, he was not "White" as he was Jewish and it's more than likely he had a darker skin color than white. I am ok with that all day.
Now, some people want to make a race ordeal out of it. If I am to believe in Jesus, which I do, then he most deffinately was not "white" in the sense we call it today.
Either the bible is wrong and there was no Jesus or it's right and therefore I know he was Jewsish. It's just that simple to me. No race, no nothing else, he was Jesus.

He is implying that you cant be Jewish and White.

If you take a trip to Israel you will notice they are darker skin than American Jews, agreed?
So, now that I think of it, Jesus was not white white, he had all colors in a way. White looking yet darker skin too. That actually makes sense to me.

Jewish people from where they came are in fact darker in color. So are Arabs in the near region. It's not a bad thing more than it is a product of originality.

Probably should just remember what Jesus stood for and not what he looked like. We'll never be able to prove that.

On that I totally agree. But then I never brought color into this. He is he and of course people want to make him out for whatever color.
I will stick with biblical accounts that he was Jewish and in doing so, and that region of earth, I believe he most likely had the color of current Jews in Israel or any othet peoples in the middle east. Regardless, I don't care at the end of the day.

Jesus was brown or black. 0% he's white.
The fact of Jesus' race is fairly unimportant. However, if doubt can be cast upon its depiction, then doubt can be cast upon all other elements of Biblical assessments as well.
So as unimportant as race is in the proposition, let's pursue FACT.
Here are some FACTS:
(1) Jesus was a Jew.
(2) Because of Jewish social habits over two subsequent millennia, specifically a resistance to marry non-jews, we are left with a very good DNA window into make-up of Israelites. It is neither brown nor black.
(3) We further have depictions of Israelites by neighboring groups. Let's take a look, shall we:
THE MAN ON THE UPPER REGISTER HOLDING A DARK BROWN IBEX IS LABELED ABISCHA (SOUNDS LIKE THE HEBREW NAME “AVISHAI”) AND BEARS THE TITLE HYKSOS (“SHEPHERD KING”).
THREE ISRAELITE MEN PLAYING LYRES AS THEY ARE LED OFF INTO CAPTIVITY FOLLOWING THE
ASSYRIAN VICTORY AT LACHISH. THIS RECALLS THE BIBLE’S DESCRIPTION OF THE BABYLONIANS
FORCING THE EXILED JUDAHITES TO PLAY SONGS OF ZION ON THEIR HARPS (PS. 137). THE
ISRAELITES’ BEARDS ARE SHORTER THAN THAT OF THE ASSYRIAN SOLDIER ON THE LEFT.
DETAIL FROM THE BLACK OBELISK OF SHALMANESER III (REIGNED 858-824 BC). THE FIGURE BOWING DOWN IS THE ISRAELITE KING JEHU. THIS IS THE EARLIEST ARTISTIC DEPICTION OF A SPECIFIC FIGURE MENTIONED IN THE HEBREW
======
By contrast, here are Egyptian hieroglyphic depictions of Nubians:
So in response to the black or brown conjecture, Jesus racial appearance would not likely stray from that of modern Jews.

Sure, nothing wrong with being a white nationalist. They are just proud of their heritage. Didnotdoanything

You are completely wrong.
A white nationalist means white people are better and the nation would be better if white people were acknowledged as superior than any non-white citizen.
No, you are completely wrong sir. Look up the actual definition of Nationalism.
Just like the MSM, you're equating Nationalism with Supremacy. Maybe you're smart enough to know the difference, but I suspect that you're not.

Lol Black Racists will always be around. Funny thing is though, when is the last time you heard a news org call a black person racist..?

While it is true that it isn't today, It pretty much used to be.
Given the whole not marrying outside of Judaism thing, which kind of curtails your choices.
