When I have asked this question to local church groups and denominations(baptist, catholic, buddhist, mormons, etc.) they all give me different answers. The baptist say that the jews killed Jesus because he was white. And the Roman Catholics and buddhist say the romans killed jesus. So who really killed jesus?

Jesus wasn't white, he was a Middle Eastern Jew. The Roman soldiers nailed him to the cross after the Jews called for his execution. According to the Bible, he then gave his spirit and allowed himself to die, as a self-sacrifice. Being the son of God, he surely could have just not died if he had chosen.
My question to you is: Why does this have to be about race? Race was most certainly not a motivating factor in his death. Why is it of any importance to you, other than to place blame? I think you are missing the point entirely.

Jesus was a Jew. This is certain. Historically all the people that lived in that area were not white. Not like Caucasian.
The masses, even the people who followed and listened to him called out for his execution.

The Romans executed Jesus at the Jews insistence. They both had a part in it but it was not because of Jesus' skincolor. It was political.

The Romans did the actual impalement but as Pilate said, his blood was on the hands of the Jewish religious leaders as he did not want a possible uprising.

Jesus said no man took his life. The bible tells that he yielded his spirit. The answer is: no one killed him though I acknowledge roman soldiers tried to.

It was suicide. The only way Jesus could fulfill the prophesies was to die. He set himself up. Told Judas to turn him in and commit ed blasphemy in court, knowing hi would get a death sentence.

My answer is that we ALL killed Jesus. We ALL did this because of our sinfulness.
However, Jesus freely gave His life for ours, so that we could be saved. Is there any greater love?
