However remember also that the bible, although a great read.. Is not always going to be scientifically correct.. It's explenation of how the world came to be is pretty realistic as to what may have happened.. But theres no real way someone from 2000+ years ago back when science was literally non-existant could give an accurate theory of what went down back when there were no earthly inhabitants to view such happenings. And even these days we can only give off plausable theorys. For all we know, our galaxy was singularily formed through matter leading through a black hole from another parralelle universe creating a big bang effect then slowly reaching a point of demise where the effect is turned back on itself sucking everything slowly back in and beginning a new cycle in another universe or universal location. For all we know, the big bang theory is way more localised than our innitial theorys. Possibly the universe is a constant?

The reason I believe god is the universe is simple deductive logic. It makes more sense realistically than a sepetate entity being that god is supposidly everywhere in the universe at the same time.. He takes no depictable form, he is in complete control of everything and everything abides by his laws.

We were supposidly made in his image.. Look at the human brain. It is essentually millions of tiny receptors all connected to make a larger whole. The universe is an inconcievable amount of tiny stars and planets all connected, moving together through the force of gravity.

There is so much about this universe that we literally have absolutly no idea about. Our science of today is primative compared to what it will become in the distant future. I mean I could be wrong? God could be some kind of universal energy force? Or he could be a seperate entity.. I'm just going by whats most logical and realistic in concurrance to the currant human knowledge on these matters.

Based on the time and region in which he lived, Jesus would have:

#1...been Short...probably under 5'9"...So, he would have been unassuming at best.

#2...Medium to brown skin...He was arab...And, that region was in the middle of the desert. So, even if Jesus was initially fair skinned, he wouldn't have been by the time of his death. In other words, Jesus was not lilly white because he wasn't European.

#3...Had a beard...it was customary for Hebrew men to have beards...He would have had a beard


#4...a short hair cut...It was NOT JEWISH custom for men to have long flowing hair. So, this European depiction of Jesus is bogus.


#5...been Built...Jesus would not have been a skinny guy. He was a carpenter and would have had muscles. So, this frail thin depiction of Jesus is bogus.


#6...been relatively unattractive...He was a common man, living a commoners life...His face would have been weathered from being out in the elements so much. He would also have brown eyes and brown hair.



IN other words, you would not be able to tell that Jesus was "JESUS" by looking at him. That's the reason Judas had to point him out when the Roman Centurions came to arrest him. He didn't stand out from the crowd at all, exactly the way he wanted it.
