The Ethnicity of Jesus
Here's one you can debate at church:
There were three good arguments that Jesus was Jewish:
1. He went into His Fathers business .
2. He lived at home until he was 33.
3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin and his mother was sure he was God.
But then there were three equally good arguments that Jesus was Black:
1. He called everyone "brother" .
2. He liked Gospel.
3. He couldn't get a fair trial.
But then there were three equally good arguments that Jesus was Italian:
1. He talked with his hands.
2. He had wine with every meal.
3. He used olive oil.
But then there were three equally good arguments that Jesus was Irish:
1. He never got married.
2. He was always telling stories.
3. He loved green pastures.
But then there were three equally good arguments that Jesus was a Hippie:
1. He never cut his hair.
2. He walked around barefoot all the time.
3. He started a new religion.
But the most compelling evidence of all: three proofs that Jesus was a
woman:
1. He had to feed a crowd at a moment's notice when there was no food.
2. He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just didn't get it.
3. Even when he was dead, he had to get up because there was more work to do.
