    I've used his teaching with my children so that they would know that there is an issue with racism and a way to help prevent it. They are all adults now and doing the same thing with their kids.
    Im sorry if my postings offended you that was not my intention.

    If someone is a true follower/believer of Jesus, does it really fucking matter what color they are or what color he was?

    Too many times we sweep under the rug some of what white folk called "radical" quotes. It's just your last 2 posts regarding his words, whether intentional or not, exhibit this. We often romanticize about his teachings while leaving out a lot.

    Now you're getting into the "good" Christian debate. The KKK are Christians. So was Hitler. They certainly cared about his skin tone.

    Terrible analogy...you're neither Hitler nor a member of the klan so what difference does Jesus' skin pigment have to do with anything?

    You asked a question. I answered it and what I said is correct.

    I'm NOT a Christian though I was inundated Baptist till I was 16.

    And yes it does matter.

    Your white fragility is showing. It's ok, it's a healing process.

    No, you gave your version of an answer, ...doesn't mean you're head of The ACME Judgment Company.

    Jesus' skin color means dick...and if you're not a christian why do you even care about his skin color and why are you making such a big deal out of nothing?

    What Jesus said about Himself is a whole lot more important than what people say about his pigmentation.

    Wrong. Skin color SHOULDN'T mean dick, but it is VERY apparent it still does to SO MANY people.....

    Including yourself when a month or two ago you tried to accuse someone of presuming you being white, all the while forgetting you posted a picture of your white self....

    And your continual calling out "white people" as if they are a single person is disturbing as well. I don't consider "black people" as one as i look at all people as individuals regardless of race, color or religion. You should try that approach.

    You just can't take it that your savior's black. So much that they've made him white when you KNOW he wasn't. That's the issue. It's white fragility. That's another monument I can't wait to see torn down.

    I know you don't care how offensive it is to me for you to claim I have a problem with Jesus' skin color, but I'd like to think my past words and actions would have earned a little more respect from you than that.

    Jesus probably was dark-skinned--probably similar in complexion to the Persian family who were my best friends for years. And still I say: His words matter much more than His skin tone.

    I did not say that. Psalms said he was fairer than most men. I said no one really knows. No one should care either.

    As for Christianity, there. Are a ton of so called Christians that don’t actually have a relationship with God. That’s what’s truly important
