No one knows if he was even real, much less what color he was.

Jesus came from Chicago, North Shore, and Christianity is not an Eastern religion ;-)
Seriously, considering there are blond and red-haired, green-eyed/blue-eyed Palestinians, Christ could have been white or any of the other beautiful hues and shades of the people of that area.

Jesus is a Jew (a semitic race) therefore most probably of a dark complexion.
Most of the pictures (paintings I mean) that we see are by European and American artists who would naturally represent him from their own experience.. Which would cause their representations to erroneously depict him as a European.
I kinda like the song that starts... Some children see him... and goes on to say that they see him as being of their own race.
He came for every one of us and I don't think it matters how we see him in our mind's eye... All that really matters is that he is in our heart!

Unlikely. He was middle eastern, whereas we usually consider northern and western Europeans 'white.' Most people meeting a true Greek don't consider them white, much less someone from the middle east.

What do you mean by "like we are told to believe"? I have never heard that phrase about Jesus mentioned before.Also when you say was Jesus actually a "white man",what are you getting at?Your whole question appears to be complete nonsense.

Jesus would have looked like every other Jew who grew up in the regions that He was raised. I would imagine His skin was probably well tanned.

He looked Jewish because he was born Jewish. I don't know what racist people came up with the anglo image.

Judging from the location (the Middle East, "Canaan"; Israel), I'm pretty sure he was Caucasian and Jewish, as we are told.
Geography, dear.

Why the Jews call Jesus a Bastard in their holy book and they really thing he is a bastard that your God they are talking about!!!! why you go and kill Muslims because they tells you do not come to my country and role it with this idea of making freedom to people and making a man have sex with other man and female with other one too. Drugs. Drinks. all you pathetic ideas. and Jesus he look like Arab and he was and you hate that fact.

The historicity of Jesus is so dubious as to render your question irrelevant
