[BluegrassBlueVote]

Amazing.

Hate to say it... but he was probably Middle Eastern...

[Landslide Lyndon]

Jesus loved guns and tax cuts too. That's also a verifiable fact. Just look at all those photos from when he went hunting communists with his pet dinosaur.  

[Stand With Israel. Crush Hamas]

He was a dark-skinned Jewish man.

Of course, if you talk to some idiots on the opposite side, that makes him white.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Let's put it this way, the TSA would have a field day profiling Jesus if he went through an airport.

Yes and he fought to rid the temple of strippers abortionists, gay marriage and online casinos.

This is quite a controversy.  Some website publishes a dumb, provocative article saying that we should replace Santa with a penguin because of racism.  That generates a bunch of internet clicks and people get somewhat outraged. 

Then, Fox News issues their dumb, provocative response, attempting to redeem the white virtue of Santa and Jesus. 

Then, people get outraged with Fox News's response.  It's like the circle of life.

Well if you wanna get real technical about it, Middle Eastern peoples (e.g. Arabs, Persians, Israelis, Bedouins, etc.) are in fact considered "white" by the Census Bureau.  

Of course that says nothing about what your average Fox News viewer considers them, in which context Kelly's comments are of course quite insanely horrible.

I think she meant it was a verifiable fact that Jesus was a historical figure, not that he was white.

If Megyn Kelly wasn't hot, I would be more outraged, does that make me a bad person?

Nope, just a FF!

I can't really say it does.

[Lief 🗽]

If Megyn^{(seriously? megYn??)} Kelly weren't hot she wouldn't be on Fox News and you'd have never heard of her.

[Pheurton Skeurto]

Why do we give stupid people attention

[The Free North]

1) Who cares what his skin color is, its the message that matters

2) Lol @ people who watch the propaganda machines on tv

[Antonio the Sixth]

^{(seriously? megYn??)}

That's the first thing that came to my mind.

Some American names are just retarded.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

I assure you that it's not just non-Americans who think so. White Americans will give their children absurd half-made-up names or normal names with ridiculous spellings to make them seem 'special', then turn around and make fun of black Americans for giving their children names that are often significantly more euphonic.

[Oldiesfreak1854]

I feel like this thread is unnecessary, but there's no evidence to prove what race Jesus was, except that He was Jewish by ethnicity (and religion.)  He was probably dark-skinned, but it doesn't matter because He always showed love to everyone, regardless of race or ethnicity (as was demonstrated numerous times in the Gospels.)

[Joe Republic]

You're all wrong, and here's proof:

True.

Yep.  And wasn't the original St. Nicholas Greek?

If Megyn Kelly wasn't hot, I would be more outraged, does that make me a bad person?

I've gotten to the point where dumb completely hides hot.

RIP ANVI.

I know, it is sad, isn't it?

And Santa Claus was a Turkish man. (Though no one spoke Turkish in the area yet... but it's not as if the genetic profile of the population has changed all that much.)
