Depends on if they were Italian Romans or conquered peoples, because I don’t know if Italians qualify as white or not. Italians are kinda their own category.The Romans were white AF.

I'd throw them in a category called Mediterranean.Depends on if they were Italian Romans or conquered peoples, because I don’t know if Italians qualify as white or not. Italians are kinda their own category.
I was thinking were all kinds of other tribes pressed into military service that would’ve been present at the time so I looked it up and learned something.The Romans who effed up Jesus were probably not conquered by anyone. Rome wouldn't start to fall until 111AD as it were.

Apparently, a discussion of ethnicities during the time of Jesus is an attack on 85’s Christian sensitivities.Like I said, brought to you by people who aren’t Christians and have never read the Bible
Even though he was born in the Middle East, Jesus was made in the image of god and god is obviously a white guy. Checkmate.85: wE sHoUlD nOt tEaR dOwN sTaTuEs aNd gEt rId oF tHe nAtIoNaL aNtHeM, tHaT's A pArT oF hIsToRy aNd yOu sHoUlD nOt cHaNGE hIsToRy jUsT tO mAkE pEoPlE hApPy.

Romans were blond haired / blue eyes until the invasions of 100+ AD. That's where the dark hair / dark eyes comes from.
Here's one of the earliest renderings of Christ still preserved at the Monastery of St. Catherine on Mount Sinai, in Egypt.
When the earliest renderings of Christ are hundreds of years after his death and resurrection, it's pretty clear no one has any real idea what he actually looked like.Here's one of the earliest renderings of Christ still preserved at the Monastery of St. Catherine on Mount Sinai, in Egypt.

85 has run the spectrum in this thread:Are you stupid enough to think that there is one, single uniform depiction of Christ throughout the entire Christian world?
This is the most idiotic debate I’ve ever seen. A bunch of whiny snowflakes triggered at the idea that people may view Christ through the prism of their own self being and likeness. Oh no! Let’s go ransack churches and get Woke about it!
85 has run the spectrum in this thread:
First post - People who bring up the ethnicity of Jesus Christ hate Christianity.
Second post - More of the same.

How about his race?His ethnicity is not what’s being discussed here but kudos on entering yet another disingenuous premise.
Is deity a race?How about his race?
