Humans always pride themselves to be a higher species because of their ability to think and make decisions. In my opinion, the ability to think is starting to get in the way of our lives. Because people think, and everyone think differently, quarrels and fights are started. Because people think, their school essays get discredited; students are not supposed to think, they are supposed to 'think' like people of the past who had written some books or some form of evidence and include those in the essays. Because people think, those who don't think have to conform to the ideas of the former. Because people think, they cannot come to a decision about some things and it will always be there, never-ending, never gonna be solved. Because people think. Too much in fact. Wouldn't it be good if everyone just do things without thinking too much? Go for it. On impulse. On instinct. Would that make things better? Look what has all the thinking done to us. Yes, we have the technology, the entertainment and everything else which people of the past did not have but we no longer have the simplicity in people. I'm not saying that people in the past did not think but they were smarter. They don't think so much. What's the point of thinking so much and still no conclusion and decision could be made? Doesn't that make you feel worse?

Bottomline: we think too much. Don't k. To whoever this is applicable to.

It could be said that no one knows what Jesus looked like, but those who say that he was a specific color don't know what they're talking about.
He was born in an area of the world that had many races and no one knows for sure what color he was.
Those who have done illustrations of Jesus over the centuries have most often painted a 'romanticized' white skinned person because they thought of him as white.
Then, there is no distinct 'white' race.
Pure Caucasians could be said to be white, but there are very few pure Caucasians now and were possibly proportionately around the same numbers back then.

Only ignorant white people are saying that. Those who don't take into consideration where he was from and his ancestry. Look to people of the middle east for skin color description.
There are some interesting artistic liberties taken I think historically in looking at artistic representations, but I hope we've moved past that and into a little more realism.

I am white and i think he would have been bronze skinned. Like hispanic or Isralie. Not white he came from a part of the world that has olive skin to protect from the sun.

Jesus wasn't white. he was most likely tanned or olive skinned like modern day arabians or egyptians

yep...... Jesus could never have been white unless you would call the isrealites white, then on would say he is white but the bible tells us that when he came he came as a jew, and jews are not white.
