I realize black is in vogue right now, and is good business for them but is there no limit how far they want to go? What colot isd God?
Perhaps Jesus was a grey.

The Great Spirit is colourless, odourless, and tasteless.

Nah, Santa's white. How long would a black man entering people's houses at midnight live in the U.S.?
Apparently they do it all the time and nobody notices until well after the fact. Sort of a Robin Hood type of Santa and the 'gifts' get passed out 365 days of the year. I'll assume the couple that falsely reported their gifts stolen were white.
I've met many Middle Easterners (mostly women though, who have slightly lighter skin) who've LOOKED white, but since white per se usually means someone whose ancestors were from Europe (even if they could pass for non-white, as some Europeans can) they are white, and no one from any other part of the world is, even if they are blond haired and blue eyed.
You see, white is not a literal description of skin colour, but an umbrella term for people of several ethnic origins; black people, after all, are of many different skin shades and none of them literally look black.
Therefore Jesus can't be white, no matter how much the newscaster wants him to be.
I do understand that some countries consider people from Lebanon white (particularly Carribean nations), and that according to the official census of the US this is also the case, but we are going by the standards of most Americans, what they would say if they met someone, not a law that was only enacted to give US citizens from the Middle East more rights during the days of Jim Crow.
