The Nativity- Happy Holiday And Peace To All Of God's People!

I stongly suggest that you view CNN's Special "After Jesus." I've seen only short previews, so I will hold my opinion until after the total presentation. As is the case annually, Jesus and Mary are falsely presented as Caucasian. The previews do indicate more of the same misrepresenation and distortion of the truth. Here is one of the usual pictures of Jesus and his followers you will see. Here is the viewing schedule. CNN Presents: After Jesus – The First Christians After the execution of their Messiah, the followers of Jesus scattered throughout the ancient world to escape persecution and martyrdom. In a two-hour special presentation narrated by Liam Neeson, CNN Presents explores how the story of Christianity was written and re-written in the centuries following Jesus’ death. After Jesus uses historical artwork and three-dimensional technology to reveal the complex, violent and surprising world of the first Christians. Premiere: Wednesday, Dec. 20, 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. (ET) Replay: Friday, Dec. 22, 10 p.m. to 12 a.m. / 1 a.m. to 3 a.m. (ET) Saturday, Dec. 23, 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. / 12 a.m. to 2 a.m. (ET) Sunday, Dec. 24, 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. / 12 a.m. to 2 a.m. (ET) I invite those who view this special to post your intelligent and thoughtful observations in the coming days.

After viewing this CNN special, since I am not a minister or religious scholar I can not take issue with any of the information presented. But I do disagree with the continued false presentation of  Jesus as Caucasian, especially when the public airways are used to disseminate this lie.

I'm white, and to me it makes sense that Jesus would have been at least partially black. Furthermore, I have no problem with it. If a human lived and taught love and forgiveness and knowing your self and your ultimate spiritual parent, I care not what color creed or even what sex they were. But since we do have some clues to the origin and particulars of Jesus, why deny the truth. Strong - wise - miraculous black man? cool with me - Merry Christmas - Love a stranger
