Zone1 What did Jesus look like? Does it matter?

[Hafar1014]

Believe in me or burn in hell but I love you

The traditional portrait of Jesus is with the long blondish hair looking like a refugee from Woodstock. Where did it come from? Was it a marketing gimmick , in the age before photography, rather than an accurate profile of Almighty God's face?

The reality is that Jesus H. Christ was Jewish, and could have easily looked like Moses Horwitz aka Moe Howard of Hollywood fame who portrayed both a carpenter as well as a fisherman in two of his flicks.

Would Christianity have been successful if Moe's portrait would have been used instead?

Were the Three Stooges a lot more Jewish than we realized?

There’s a lot more to the comic trio’s Jewishness than the Yiddish they inserted in their skits

I see you are choosing to remain steeped in your ignorance and lies.

He had a middle initial H?

That seems kind of disrespectful; something that people yell when they're cussing and angry.

Out of curiosity: Do you go to Hindu sites and post in Hindu threads they worship idols? Or is it only Christians you harass?

Thats why Jews cant believe in Jesus. When give god a name face and personality he is reduced to an idol.

I'm a Christian but you know what? Many times "Christians" just ask for it.

Evangelical: I Saw Charlie Kirk Riding Horses With Jesus In Heaven Where Jesus Also "Gave Him A Horse Ranch" - Joe.My.God.

“This morning I was praying and going over my notes. The lord showed me Charlie in heaven. Like I said, I don’t know anything about Charlie so I hope somebody puts it in the chat or lets me know what you know about him. But I saw Charlie this morning riding on a horse with …

The Jesus narrative explained for many first-century Jews (and second-century) the destruction of the temple and of Jewish culture.

And in a much more subtle way, the expansion of a movement beyond the visions of these Jewish converts.

Hindus do worship idols, and are cool with it.

I understand your insistence that God cannot appear as a man. A burning bush, on the other hand, is totally acceptable. Any other rules you have for God?

Jesus and the apostles didn't add hell and the devil; they already existed. Later Christians added them as metaphysical or spiritual attachments after hell and the devil had already been defeated.

However, they do not consider Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva as idols. Objects worshiped are considered idols.

This is an artists rendering of early Trump supporters you might have seen before.
