I think he's usually depicted as an anglosaxon -- looks like a Caifornia surfer. He's got worldwide appeal because this is the standard of beauty that we export through the media to the world.

Yes, because no matter how shabby he looks, it's his moral teachings were more important to people.

Jesus was curly haired, he was a Black man. His mother was an Ethiopian. Black Madonna statutes were stolen and reside all over Europe. Do you know your history? Michanegelo was directed to put a new face on him so that this image could be used by missionaries to help the elite get control of the world and its peoples. Michangelo painted his uncle. That famous picture that floats around is the painter's uncle! LOL.

Maybe HE wouldnt be...but, HIS MESSAGE would have been!!
No matter who delivers the Message, if its a good one, then no one can refute it, and it will be followed.
Looks arent everything. I can take a beautiful woman and she can have a snotty personality and foul language and you will think she is the ugliest person in the World!!
I can take a very unattractive person, and they can have warmth in thier hearts for everyone, uplift your spirit and be a real joy to be around, and you will think that they are the most beautiful person to be around!!
Its whats in the "heart", of a person that we should judge by, not the appearance.
And lets face it, JESUS'S Message was the most powerful message known to man! It was the Word of GOD!! When HE preached, everyone came around for the Word, that was being preched. HIS Miracles were known far and wide! HE could of been a midget and no one would have noticed after the LORD put it in thier hearts, HIS Words, and HIS miracles....
I wish you well..
Jesse

Jesus is not about looks but our salvation. How he may or may not have looked is not relevant. The Bible just says sacrificial lambs had to be without defect and in good shape. From this we can conclude He was able bodied and healthy nothing more!!
Lev 6:"6 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD, a ram without blemish out of the flock,.."

It's hard to believe that he would be fat. In that hot environment, living most of the time outdoors. He joined most of the time the poor people and between them he would eat frugal because that is reasonable and common sense. About the curly hair and hooked nose, I have nothing against that, do you?

According to what people looked where Jesus was born, he must have been curly haired with a hooked nose. Yet he became very popular looking like that.

You know...it really dosen't matter to me what He looked like. He said "I am the way, the truth and the life" But one day we will see Him and he'll still have the thorn holes in his forehead, the nail holes in his hands and feet, the spear hole in his side, and the scars on his back. But we'll all have a new body perfect in every way that will last forever. Isn't that something? we'll have new bodies and he'll have the one that was broken for us all. Now that's the Love of God for you. His body will be a wonderous reminder to us all for all eternity of just how much He loves us all.

I doubt he was fat. But he very well may have had curly hair and hooked nose.
All we really know is that Jesus was a Jewish settler from the West Bank.

People would still find a way to make him seem like a savior and screw you over to get your money.
