I listened to a recent podcast called "there's no such thing as a fish" by the QI team, who said that there were a few ancient descriptions of Jesus 3 of them said he had a mono brow and one, when the measurements were translated into modern units, had his height as 4 foot 8.
Cant remember which one it was, but they're all worth a listen.

Considering when and where he supposedly lived and where he was supposedly born, unless his parents (or their parents, or their parents, etc) were immigrants or bred with immigrants, it's not unreasonable to say that he probably wasn't white.

If Jesus doesn't look like this it ain't Jesus.

They were a family of traveling circus albinos involved mainly in big top construction and the circus went bust. Man, some people, I tell you what! Where do you think the magic tricks came from?

The idea of white jesus started in Europe before or even after the 4th century.
