So Mary was magically inseminated by the Holy Spirit, which would yield to Jesus receiving a mix of Mary and God's appearance?
Or was Jesus simply put in Marys womb by God so she would deliver him on earth to "save the sinners?" (And have no effect on his features.)
I highly doubt that Jesus looked like the light skinned, blue eyed, blonde haired man America pictures him as. If Marys genes were involved in what Jesus looked like, he would look more like a middle-eastern man than some white guy.
I'm not asking for facts. I'm only asking for opinions and thoughts.

And if Jesus only resembled God in appearance, could it be possible Jesus looked like a white dude living in the middle-east?

The blue eyed, white man is how most Americans picture Jesus. I'm some what trying to understand how this description came to be.

Well, if it is just an opinion you want, my opinion is that Jesus is at least 90% fictional and mythical, and maybe (and a BIG maybe at that) 10% based on some poor nut who actually really lived and got himself crucified around 2000 years ago or so. Much of his biography is almost exactly similar to other sun gods (only the names and places have been changed), so that makes the actual existence highly suspect. He is not the only god to have been born of a virgin by a long shot. The original Virgin may well correspond with the constellation of Virgo, one of the signs of the Zodiac. (The one my dad was born under, as a matter of fact.)

Jesus was a spirit person in heaven an angel who has no body of flesh and blood at all. Then this power was transformed into Marys womb by God so it was more like she was a surrogate mother.
Genesis 6 and Jude 6 it tells about the other angels who came to earth and made human bodies to live with women.
They could make it appear anyway they wanted but chances are Jesus was dark skinned the body he used would have to blend with the people at the time.
After his resurrection Jesus appeared in many different bodies read acts 1: for 40 days he appeared to people in a human body. then he went to heaven where he no longer needed a flesh and blood body and angels are invisible to humans. God made all the different body color s and types so what difference does it make which one he used.

Ive never seen a blonde haird and blue eyed Jesus, but i do know that the pictures we have of him are definitly wrong. He was a poor Jew (no offence) so he wouldn't have had the white robes with vibrant sashes. He prolly had black or brown hair, and was lighter skinned than a middle-eastern man. He prolly had a beard because that was the style of the time. We will never know though.

The Bible states that Jesus was an ordinary man...nothing that would attract someone of the opposite sex...Certainly he was not blue eyed and blonde.
Mary was overshadowed by the Holy Spirit and was as you have said "magically or supernaturally inseminated"...Half of his genetic material would have been from Mary.

I think Jesus is the symbol of Christianity. Some religions call their God Allah or Mohamed but I think it refers to one person & that is Jesus. Mary was impregnated by the holy spirit as what the Bible says, because God the Father is already there & so the next generation is the son of God Jesus & after he died the next geneation is The Holy Spirit.The holy sprit is always in us its just a matter how kind we are to our fellowmen who really deserve it.

Jesus was Semitic and looked like a Jew, since he was an Essene.
He would only have been blond and blue eyed if he came from Sweden or thereabouts!

there is not any timeframe pronounced as to the 2nd coming of Jesus basically the father did knows the real time whilst this could take place. Acts a million:9 to ff "And whilst he had spoken those issues, on the same time as they beheld, he replaced into taken up; and a cloud won him out of their sight. 10 And on the same time as they regarded stedfastly in direction of heaven as he went up, behold, 2 adult men stood by utilising them in white garb; 11 Which additionally reported, Ye adult men of Galilee, why stand ye staring at up into heaven? this comparable Jesus, that's taken up from you into heaven, shall so are available like way as ye have seen him flow into heaven." the area is mount olive. definite, all and sundry in the international would have the potential to verify him descent from heaven on Judgment day. The Bible says "Blessed are people who believed and yet do no longer see" which ability people who do no longer see Jesus in person.
