This is hilarious to me. The mutation for white skin isn't a haplogroup or distinct genetic that distinguish you from a different ethnicity genetically. They are all Eurasians, but there are dark skin Euroasians as well. This is why race is mythos from the likes of Lord of the Rings as far as having any weight scientifically.

That makes no difference when we talk about white people we are not talking about "dark" eurasians -
race is primarily a social construct but it's not totally a social construct people want to erase the scientific validity of human differences between population only because acknowledgement of these difference has lead to human suffering.
and if any thing "races" are just categorizations/grouping together of different haplogroups -

Well, in Americas we aren't using haplogroups, cause we tend to think of the Andaman people as sub-saharan Africans, but they are not. Genetic wise they are closer to the Japanese and Tibetans. Same with the Aboriginals of Australia. -

yes we are using haplogroups we are just not saying so
for example an person Irish may belong in one group and the Italians another but they are grouped together are white based on their physical similarity.
Race is just the simplest way to divide and categorize people but people are going to be divided anyway because that's just human nature. -
Jesus isn't even his correct name..and wasn't the image of jesus created by the request of ceaser? As well as the description of jesus in the bible/torah a different reflection of what is portrayed.....I feel like this tread is some trolling funny ? because unless you really don't know your history it's obvious this isn't the real image

@BARON_$AMEDI please for once can you make a coherent argument that's not based on assumptions or flat out wrong information.I really don't get the point of this thread . what about all the hundreds of depictions of dark skin biblical figures that can be found in churches all over the world including Ethiopia.
Quit playing dumb my ? !Christianity in Ethiopia was not started by white people. The Greeks and Romans never ruled Ethiopia.
Ethiopia is poor but it's not because of any religion.
You might as well believe crackas never had nothing to do with hundreds of years of evil done to our people. We did it to ourselves, we sold all of our loved ones into hundreds of years of hell. Your ancestors just hopped on a boat and went to those islands freely, to work for free, ? AFRICA! Black people were also godless savages jumping around in trees until the white man gave us jesus and civilized us.................
According to the christian church of Ethiopia Christianity was introduce to the nation by Philip the evangelist when he converted an Ethiopian court official this account is actually in the bible and Judaism was in Ethiopia centuries before that and it was a king of Axum that made it the official religion.
My ancestors were the akan people from what is today ghana they admitted to selling slaves to Europeans so did the current traditional rulers of Dahomey and i can prove that because is has been well documented
The arguments you are making are not coherent to me because they don't prove what you are trying to make them prove. If i start making pictures of A WHITE MLK that becomes very popular is that suddenly going to make him white???? There is no blaspheme in making pictures of Jesus because Jesus walked on earth and the prohibition is against worshiping images of men not simply creating them. Black people did not draw those white Jesus pictures so why should we have a problem with whites doing so??? they can do what they please. You act as if black people believe everything white people portray is the truth so if Europeans make Jesus or ancient Egyptians white then automatically black people believe it. Niggga black people are not as stupid as you think they are
The problem with you is that you make too many leaps in logic and assumptions you are also very obnoxious
The oppression and struggles of "black people" are not of actions that we did to ourselves. ..it's the reflection of the curse that was instilled upon us from the results of Abrahams offspring going against the most high...that curse held a doctirine that we would lose our self identity and have years of suffering....white people all in all are a genetic mutuality that was also enhanced by their region and so forth. Their lack of natural common sense, natural barbaric acts when they express negative emotion, their natural hunger for control and ? their inability to practice faith and their disregard for peace and equality without judgement....... to me....makes them appear to be demons in the flesh here to enforce thus said curse of the isrealites -
y'all ? bore me with this ? .

So basically, the Bible ? co-signed all the evil and suffering that happened to Blacks, and in some ways engineered it. How fantastic. -

NOPE. the vast vast majority of human suffering was caused by the works of man had we obeyed the messages of Christ the African slave trade would never have happened. THERE IS DOCUMENTED proof that black people sold other black people. White people are humans just very different looking humans who had a culture that supported the ruthless exploration of other people. They pretty much just ignored the parts of Christ teaching that did not fit their desires. -
Did Africans trade African slaves before or after colonization or first contact from outsiders ??
-
Persians let alone Middle Easterns aren't a race to my knowledge, but are an ethnicity. And by some standards whites would only constitute Anglo-Saxons and the Nordics

We had to wear those hard "church shoes" wake up early on Sunday morning, then at the church we'd be surrounded by imagery of white people (Murals, busts in his likeness, white Jesus in the stain-glassed windows, etc.)
Then as I got older, I thought about how our Mother's forced us to go to church, just my Grandmother, forced her to go to church........and so on, and so on.
All the way back to slavery, when it was forced (Christianity) on them by the white slave-master. It's not a coincidence that the slave-master's justification for introducing slavery was to keep us under control, and keep our behavior in check. Which was the same justification our Mother's used for forcing the church, ie. White Jesus on us. I look at it as the oppressed, taking on the characteristics of the oppressor.
Every black kid in my neighborhood had that same picture of white Jesus in their house. The picture of white Jesus peered down on these households surrounded by hopelessness, poverty, self-hate, self-destructive behaviors (ie. Alcoholism, drug abuse, domestic violence, all used to anesthetize the pain).
Traditions, and culture are the conjoined twins, fused at the hip, that give religion it's powerful emotive power that go to the heart of why we still continue to embrace white Jesus. Furthermore, they reinforce those post-colonial power structures resulting in scores of indoctrinated black Christians proclaiming their allegiance to white Jesus/? . Ever wonder why most black churches in the South (the hotbed of slavery) are filled to the brim with fat, single, black Mother's with a "sprinkling" of black men present.
As long as we stay marred in the past accepting these false images, we will be like Usain Bolt, running in quicksand (All the power and speed from being "born gifted" but going nowhere fast). This is my clarion call to my fellow ill community posters. Take the chains off your brains and reject white Jesus, white ? , white angels.....All white everything!!
LOL that sounds like something a naive sheltered white person would say that was listening to black folks tell their actual life experiences.
I'm pretty sure nobody knows what this is a picture of, only in our small circle of ignorant ? has seen this plastered everywhere. I'm sure of it!!!!!!!!!

1. we believe in the teachings of the bible because we have decided that the teachings contained in it detail the true principals of ? , and that it is the directions to the path of knowing ? . Also our conviction in the bible Ultimately being from ? is a result of our personal experience in seeing the promises of ? that are found in the bible ACTUALLY WORK within our lives. In other words if you obey ? you will see what he promised happen in your life.
2. Speaking for myself personally i don't bad mouth ALL other faiths just some, there is one in particular that i don't like because i believe it to be utterly evil.
3. THE bible contains history,poetry, prophecy, law and details the ethnic-genesis of the people today know as jews and Christians. The bible contains both faith and fact it's history however is told from one perspective.
4. Murder is a sin killing is not a sin, there is a huge distinction between the words. Capital punishment for example is not murder. SELF defense that ends in the death of the attacker is not murder. There is a whole book in the bible called judges people take thou shalt not judge out of context.
You can attack christian history which is fine with me because Christians have done horrible things and these things are in direct opposition to the teaching of christ. However in doing SO you have made historical errors. Christianity did not force itself into Ethiopia. I have answered all your questions. Respectfully ask me some more and i will answer you -

Prior to Arab enslavement. You don't really see that, along like west africa. It's hard to paint a picture without writings.
