Was Jesus white?

This argument inflames different sides of the cultural war in the US, one that feels oppressed, and the other that also feels oppressed and claims everyone is oversensitive.

Anyway, my guess was that Jews of Jesus' time probably looked like Palestinians, so images of a white Jesus are simply some kind of vanity on the part of certain worshippers. However, though, what Jesus looked like doesn't matter, as actually it's idolatry to have pictures of Jesus and what really matters is his message.

lol it makes me laugh when Christians try to portray Jesus as white. He was most certainly not!

Oh, you must be one of those oversensitive people, lol (sarcasm).

I mean, in movies jesus is always portrayed as a white person. I think jesus or god was a white person that was left to die on a cross.

However, I don't believe in god or a higher power.

Then that must be true. Just kidding.

Jesus was not born in Europe, he parents were not European. Jesus was born in Asia and Asia is not the land of white people, so how can Jesus be white. He was probably brown, if not black.

I don't think it matters who he was, but saying he isn't white goes into this oversensitive WOKE stuff these days, even if that's true.

Am just going to go with the last part, what he looks like doesn't really matter, and it should not affect or influence your fate in anyway or from.

What difference does it make what color he was? The important thing is his teachings, not the color of his skin. Is Jesus Chinese? what difference does it make

I don't like entering these conversations about the race of Jesus. I don't know why the world still wants to judge people based on the colour if their skin. We should rather focu ls in impacts than skin colour. Jesus can b black or white. I don't care about that.
