**Not really. But it would be if I said what I wanted to.**

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Oh goodie! Controversy! There's never enough of that.

 

Anything to piss off religious fanatics.

[TheBlackOut 7]

Let people think what they want Jesus to look like...

[Acerz492 1]

It's only logical to assume that Jesus was black, coming from that part of the world.

[Tree 0]

It's only logical to assume nothing in the field of religion.

 

Logic = null in religion

[Acerz492 1]

Ah, yes, that's true. What the hell was I thinking when I posted that above statement? :shock:

Tree, don't be such an incredible moron. We're talking about the race of a historical figure, right? Yes, and he does happen to be the most influential person in history. There's nothing inherently religious about that :roll:

Let's not start this again... :roll:

 

Jesus was Jewish.

But frankly, it doesn't really matter one way or the other. It's a bit of trivia and nothing more.

[Saracen 16]

Some people wanted to kick up a stink about the film Bruce Almighty. I mean FFS it's a light hearted film and it's supposed a comedy! But some people in this world are more worried about Morgan Freeman playing the part of God. Oh for God's sake

[BWare 0]

Agreed. That was a good movie

[Luk3us 63]

Bah, does it really matter?

[Acerz492 1]

But frankly, it doesn't really matter one way or the other. It's a bit of trivia and nothing more.

 

But then again, not many people think that way BWare. They'll think, "ZOMG A BLACK JESUS THAT'S NOT RIGHT!!!!1111eleven" and kick up a massive fuss about it. :roll:

 

What do you think dude, should they be the first targets on the 'Crusade Against Stupidty' list? :wink:

[Tree 0]

Not a massive fuss. Just doesn't make sense really. If you look at it in a religious light, that is.

Wow..... Old!!!

Life is a test many quest the universe

And through my research, I felt the joy and the hurt

The first shall be last and the last shall be first

The basic instructions before leaving earth

 

Verse One:

 

Knowledge this wisdom, this goes back when I was twelve

I loved doing right but I was trapped in hell

Had mad ideas, sad eyes and tears

Years of fears, but yo my foes couldn't bear

I searched for the truth since my youth

And went to church since birth, but it wasn't worth the loot

that I was paying, plus the praying

I didn't like staying cuz of busy-bodies and dizzy hotties

That the preacher had souped up with lies

Had me cooped up lookin at loot, butt, and thighs

Durin the service, he swallowed up the poor

And after they heard this, they wallowed on the floor

But I ignored, and explored my history that was untold

And watched mysteries unfold

And dropped a jewel like Solomon, but never followed men

cause if you do your brain is more hollow than

Space oblivia, or the abyss

With no trace of trivia, left with the hiss

Does it pay to be deaf, dumb and blind?

From a slave we was kept from the mind

And from the caves he crept from behind

And what he gave, was the sect of the swine

When the bible, it condemned the pig

I don't mean to pull your hems or flip your wigs

But we used to wear a turban, but now we're in the urban

No more wearing beanies and dress like a genie

No hocus pocus cause I focus on the facts

And put it on the tracks and brought it through the wax

I speak on Jacob, it might take up some time

And too much knowledge, it might break up the ryhme

I did it anyway just to wake up the mind

of those who kiss stones or prays on the carpet

Those who sit home, or sell books by the market

Need to chill and get their mind revived

For years religion did nothing but divide

The basic instructions before leaving earth

 

Chorus

 

Verse Two:

 

I strolled through the books of Job to unfold

And open bibles, instead of hoping on revivals

Calling on His name and screaming hallelujah

when he hardly knew ya, that's how the devil's fooled ya

See look into my eyes brethren, that's the lies of a Reverend

Why should you die to go to heaven?

The Earth is already in space, the bible I embrace

A difficult task I had to take

I studied till my eyes was swollen, and only arose when

I found out that we were the chosen

I deal with the truth, and build with the youth

And teach my son as he kneels on the stoop

Son, life is a pool of sin, corrupted wth foolish men

and women with wicked minds, who build picket signs

to legalize abortion, the evil eye distortion

I quiz Son with my wisdom

Before I converted, I was perverted, and knowledge was asserted

The study of wisdom, I perferred it

The understanding, it gave me mental freedom

I even learnt Caucasians were really the Tribe of Edam

The white image, of Christ, is really Cesare Borgia

and uhh, the second son of Pope Alexander

The Sixth of Rome, and once the picture was shown

That's how the devils tricked my dome

I prophesized to save a man, but no one gave a damn

for my nation - the seed of Abraham

Blessed with the tongue of Hebrew

Now we're strung on needles, and some are plungin evils

So study and be wise in these days of darkness

Peace to my nephew Marcus

Old news really, why would Christ be white when born in the middle east?

[Tree 0]

Logically, it does not make sense. You are correct. But if you look at it from a religious perspective, then it does.

[BWare 0]

How so?? You're very quick to use the term "religious," and I don't think you even fully understand it :?

 

Jesus was born a Jew in the Roman empire. It's not much of a mystery.... he was not white, and he was not black. People really need to calm down about that minor point anyway and focus on the more substantive stuff, like his life, teachings, and sacrifice. Race means nothing :roll:

 

What do you think dude, should they be the first targets on the 'Crusade Against Stupidty' list?

Hahaha, yes I think they will certainly be among the first to meet the business end of our crusade- as an example to others :lol:
