Jesus wasn't a white dude!

The Obscure Store served me up an article about a travelling preacher who supposedly looks like Jesus. I have no quarrel with this fellow, who is apparently sincere in spreading the word about something in which he believes.

I do have a quarrel with the people who think he looks like Jesus. These are the ninnies who drink up the KJV in all its mystical sounding "thee", "thou", and "smite"-ness like Guyana Kool-aid. Those of you faithful who can put two and two together and who paid attention in both sunday school and history class may leave the room now since you already know this. The rest of you... Jesus was not a blonde-haired, blue-eyed caucasian man!

That's right, you ninnies! Your savior was probably much closer in apprearance to our friend Yasser Arafat. To most, who actually pay attention to the lessons, this matters not one bit. But there are many who have taken offense to this suggestion. One young lady I talked to even suggested that my assertion was offensive and blasphemous.

Of course, she didn't use big words like "offensive" and "blasphemous".
