Mike Luckovich for July 16, 2019

Many of the same people who are complaining about Ariel (a FICTIONAL mermaid, who could be anything) being cast by an African American woman for the live-action remake, are the same ones who are convinced that Jesus, a swarthy middle-easterner who did not speak English, would have been a white Northern European.

Bonespurs would just call ICE as he obviously doesn’t believe in anything the guy taught.

Anyway, Jesus wasn’t a Middle Easterner, he was a Mexican. Why else is his name “Hay-soos”?

While I have ZERO doubt that Jesus did NOT look like Max Von Sydow (a fine actor by any standard), he sure-as-shit does NOT look like Robert Nesta Marley, either. If anything, he probably looked more like Yasser Arafat….

Damn! Me and the rest of the world would like to see that racist idiots face!

Damn! Me and the rest of the world would like to be there to see that racist idiots face!

Disney ought to be tried convicted & penalized for the way they murdered Hand Christian Anderson’s original story.

No, no !! Go to Pence first. Pythons would be envious when they see how far is jaw drops open.

Imagine the dread on his face.

Or better, Pence’s face

trump would have his sorry butt in a cage before He could even spit. Getting out of a cave was easy compared to seeking asylum in the US of A

I would pay money to see the expression on the Orange Idiots face if he saw a Jesus that wasn’t lilly white. For that matter, the face of any white evangelicals who’ve never thought about where and when Jesus was born and walked the Earth.

There’s always Matthew 6:5, which speaks to me: “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.” (NIV)

That’s the 2nd depicting in the political cartoons of Jesus being other than white. I hope it’s s trend that becomes common knowledge.

Right-wing conservative ‘evangelists’ are the ‘Modern Day Pharisees’.

we all have ideas what jesus would look like according to whar we look like

Present day Conservative Christians don’t worship Jesus (they only misappropriate His name). They really worship Paul, who was more to their liking.

Jesus wasn’t a Semitic Jew, he was an Aryan Jew.

During the Third Reich, German Protestant theologians, motivated by racism and tapping into traditional Christian anti-Semitism, redefined Jesus as an Aryan .

“What a hell of a Heaven it will be when all those hypocrites assemble there.” Mark Twain.

Franklin Graham would soil himself if he did, along with every other fundamentalist so called Christians.

What if Ru Paul is the second coming?

Given the “downstairs” orange of Trump’s complexion it is possible that he already knows this. ;-)

Better if he were female.

But it’s silly of course: Jesus has been on Earth numerous times, often even multiple at a time. And we never recognize him. And we often do to him (or her) whatever our society does instead of crucify. The Orange Maroon wouldn’t even look up from his twitter-factory.

Trump doesn’t belong where he’s at but he isn’t that big of a deal.

Thank you to Will Hurd of Texas, Fred Upton of Michigan, Susan Brooks of Indiana and Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, and Justin Amash of Michigan for joining Democrats to condemn the racism expressed by Trump.

LOL look at all you guys, living in Fantasyland. Jesus was a Jew living in Israel, so his external appearance would be more white / Middle Eastern. Heck, if it was something as the second coming, I would love to be there to see YOUR racist faces.
