Then why did Jesus speak in Aramaic(semitic language) and not Hebrew?History lesson for NYT editors: Palestinians are Arabs. Arabs didn’t conquer the area until 700 years after Jesus was crucified. Jesus is an ancestor of David, a Jew. Jesus was not an Arab.

Not faith, evidence.Atheists have more faith than anyone.
If there is zero evidence for the supernatural, I'm left with 100% certainty it does not exist. Should I encounter any creditable evidence, I'll adjust accordingly.And only an idiot can claim they know the unknowable.Agnostic: I don't know how the universe was created so I have to admit there may be a Creator(s).
Atheist: There may be a Creator but I'm 100% certain there is no supernatural component to this world, no God, no Jesus Christ, no Satan, no angels, no ghosts, no djinn, no Leprechauns, etc.

Jesus was a Palestinian? But he was a Jew. So Jews must be Palestinian according to their logic. Therefore, the Jews are entitled to all of Palestine.
Born in Bethlehem raised in Nazareth and both those towns are not in Europe but in...
Palestine!

Given the time and area of his birth (if he was actually real) it's highly I'll likely he was white, and if he was it would have been odd enough that it would be noted in every account of him.
He was a brown middle eastern Jew.
Some of the original inhabitants of the area were Jews.Jesus was a Palestinian? But he was a Jew. So Jews must be Palestinian according to their logic. Therefore, the Jews are entitled to all of Palestine.

But a Jew, not an Arab as the NYT states.
It is unlikely in the extreme that Jesus was anything other than swarthy, black haired, brown eyed, and so on.

Well, here's my question:
Why is it news to the NYT that He wasn't white? Who has been keeping this a secret from them up 'til now? And why do they assume we didn't already know that?

Again, no one has claimed otherwise. But thank you SO much for making that argument in support of your straw man.
I dare you to go to any Palestinian today and tell him that "Palestinian", "Arab", and "Semite" are all the same thing, and therefore Jews are Palestinians.
Meanwhile, the timeline remains the same.
