Why the debate on the color of jesus?
Why is it such a debate on the color of jesus? Does it really matter what color he is and what he looks like? Why do you believe that was put in the bible? Would you worship him less if he was opposite the color to suspected him to be?
No, it does not matter what Jesus looked liked! I wouldn't care, personally.
This debate was not necessarily sparked by any real discussion of what ethnicity Jesus would have been (assuming, of course, that he was a real person, the answer is "very Middle Eastern and very, very Jewish," by the way), but rather by the fact that every movie that depicts him depicts him as a lily-white guy. And extremely handsome. A Hunky White Jesus, if you will.
It's not a debate on what the Bible says--it's a debate on "Why the hell is he always a white guy in the movies?!"

I'm not a big fan of getting into controversial discussions in the forums. I prefer to read than write here, but this has been bothering me for a long time. There are some deep questions that I want to ask. When I talk to Jewish Rabbis or thinkers they would engage me forever, keep the coffee...

I watched and I was very impressed with Vivek Ramaswamy. I think he would be the perfect running mate for Donald Trump! He was confident and consistently conservative. I do like Tim Scott, but he may be too nice. ?? My favorite Gov fell short, but I still love DeSantis. It is still early...

Personally I am sick of hearing hie rhetoric so I could care less that he is not going to be present. I just find it amazing that his personal "feelings" over a single news reporter is his reason why. Isn't it the responsibility of all candidates to answer those questions the voters need...
