Drum Roll Please...Experts at Popular Science depict Jesus this way
 



They generated this image after studying skeletal remains from a typical male living in the region Jesus lived in during that time. As you can see, it's a complete polar opposite of what Europeans try to pass off as Jesus. Jesus was NOT European so he would not have European features.

Believe it. Jesus was a commoner who lived his life like a typical man in that region during that time. That meant he worked hard and rarely played. He was arab and would have had middle eastern features. Life was tough back then bro. So, this milky white skin you're used to seeing is bogus.

Obviously, this isn't a photograph. So, it's not EXACTLY what Jesus looked like. But, it gives a glimpse as to what a typical man would look like who lived in the region and time of Jesus. Jesus wasn't European son. You have to know that. I don't see why you're so dubious. Jesus did live. What? You expect him to look like a super model? A man's looks have nothing to do with his mission in life. Also, the process of using bones to reconstruct an image is fairly routine. Forensic scientists do it all the time with a high degree of accuracy. YOu're getting defensive as if someone is threatening your faith. Now, that's unbelievable to me.

Also, evolutionists do NOT argue that people came from Monkies. That's a misconception.

I don't see what the confusion is. The man was born not even a mile north of the tip of north africa. Did you really think he was white?

Good find Q.

Wow,I Didnt Expect Jesus To Look Like That,Then Again Its More Eastern Than Near Europe So I Should Have Expected It.

wrong...Evolutionists don't believe we evolved from "monkies". Humans are classified as APES, which are along a different evolutionary path from monkies.

Whoa. Sorry for the inaccurate statement. :bored:

La Cosa Nostra 03-14-06 02:03 PM

Lmao @ the missing link...

Humans didnt evolve from the apes you see in the zoo.. Humans are a different species.

What you people fail to take into account is that what we have here today is a result of natural selection. Back then there were far more different species of organisms living on the earth. Today there are less distinct types of humans and species are slowly becomming more and more related and similar due to evolution continually changing us to suit the new world that is growing closer and closer together.

The smarter and more powerful species of human like creatures are the ones that were able to survive the hundreds of thousands and even millions of years before we even started approaching what we have here today.

Just like the smarter and more powerful species of animals are the ones that still havnt become extinct over all this time.. They are able to survive because they have evolved and adapted to their surroundings, just like all living organisms...

twenty9 03-14-06 02:09 PM

i think the last way humans have evolved was when we startted getting rid of clubbed feet (or whatever it is) now there is that curve on the insides of our feet. the last cases i've heared of having clubbed (or cleffed) feet was in the 1940's.

Unlike all living organisms, our "evolution" can not be traced back to a single being, hence "the missing link". There's no skeleton of any being that connects us to primates, so everything else is simply speculation. evolution exits no doubt about it, but there is no evidence that we came form any primate whatsoever.

yea but its quite obvious that we came from apes what other source of animal on this earth has the same type of hands that we do and the intellegence that we have...monkeys and apes have an intellegence of a 5 year old kid the only thing that they cant do that a 5 year old can do is speak verbally but they even smart enough ta use sign language and primates are even capable of lying u might not genetically find a link but its obvious from all the signs

and that is way more accurate of a picture on what jesus would be..after all he was born in bethlehem and thats in the middle east even though its pretty much like living hell down there nowadays with all the human bombs and shit
but its just another example of some of us white people wanting to think we're above every other race :(

The only thing "obvious" is "proof". anything other than that is just theory and guesses. I could shoot holes all over and through your "theory" but no one can argue with proof. Which you don't have. Nor does modern science. Hence..."The MISSING link".

why doez it even matter how we came to be, why dont we just worry bout the future?

Humans are classified as primates. But, the explanation evolutionists give as to our origins is still largely speculation. Again, humans didn't evolve from monkies, but are considered apes--scientifically speaking.

I'll explain here again. The current theory suggests:

Modern humans and Chimps WERE THE SAME animal millions of years ago. This animal would have been an ape-like creature. Some geological catastrophe created a land rift, forcing some of the animals to live on barren land, while others lived on fertile land, complete with trees. The animals that lived on the barren land evolved into humans, while the animals on the land with trees evolved into chimps.

Humans had to evolve the ability to walk upright to survive on the tree-less landscape. It helped them see predators and hunt over the horizon.

ever heard of the saying "history repeats itself" ??

we are in a cycle man what happened in the past has an effect on whats going to happen in the future thats why

I'm extremely familliar with the THEORY of human evolution, and once again, it has massive holes in it. To be honest, if thers' no proof, I couldn't care less about "theory" because at the end of the day, all you have to go on is someone elses creative imagination of what they GUESS (variable) MIGHT (variable) POSSIBLY (variable) have happened. Not facts.

Ther eis no proof to show that humans evolved from primates. similarities no doubt. Proof? Not a drop. Or should I say..not a link.

See, that's where you're incorrect. Humans didn't evolve FROM primates, we ARE considered primates because humans and chimps were the same animal. Fossil records can corroborate the claims that modern man evolved from earlier ancestors. There is still a missing link though. "Lucy" is probably the earliest known hominid that has ties to our ape-like beginning and our modern human lineage. So, proof lies in fossil records.

"From" meaning "The source of", not "distant to". Lucy is not the missing link, therefore proves nothing more than any caveman's frozen corpse proves: That there were cave men.


Dosen't prove that primates evolved into humans. Once again..that's why it's called the MISSING link. The MISSING link between Humans and Primates.

I stated that Lucy wasn't the "missing link." Evolutionarily speaking, it's quite possible for there to be a sudden jump (huge mutation) from one species to another. But, that's probably unlikely here. Even as the early hominids began to roam Africa and then migrate, species took hundreds of thousands of years to evolve. Evolution on a large scale is slow. A missing link between that first animal that was a common ancestor between chimps and humans, and the first human-like creatures exists if it's true. It just hasn't been located yet. Africa is a huge place bro. But, you can't merge science and religion here. If you look at ths scientifically speaking, then you have to conjecture a relation to chimps because we share 98% of their genes. If you bring God into the equation, then it begs the following question: "Why would god make us almost 99% similar to chimp?" ...Was God recycling genes or something? Come on. I'm scientifically trained and I have faith in God. But, I have no conflict between the two because religion answers why, while science answers what and how.

In short, you're right, the missing link hasn't turned up. But, that doesn't rule out the possibility.

.Judicial. 03-14-06 04:45 PM

there is also proof that all the continents were once connected as a whole, and split apart and who's to say that maybe evolution was taking place around the same era that was and maybe the 'missing link' lies in the ocean somewhere,

oh and I have a question to ask, do you think there is life maybe not in this galaxy but in another, i remember reading something saying something like they've found a planet and according to them they say it's like another earth, with water and land, do you think its a possibility?

>>::StyleZ::<< 03-14-06 04:59 PM

ionno if this is true but my RE teacher showed us a pic of what scientists believe is the nail going through the foot of Jesus.

or did jesus really get nails put through his feet?

LOL...I love just considering the possibilities. I have no doubt where I came from. I'm made in God's image, fearfully and wonderfully.

Y'all can believe what you want, when you want. As for me, I choose to believe and serve the Lord. uh

PERIOD.
