    For all the Ignorant and Angry folk out there. The very first depictions of Jesus Christ were Black.
    In fact, there is a coin from the time of Constantine which have Constantine on one side (obviously European) and a picture of the one believed to be Christ on the other. He was a Black man with 7 locks on his head.
    When Michael Angelo was asked to paint a picture of the last supper with white people, he told the Pope that there were NO MODELS for such a painting.
    The Pope told him, "You will think of something"
    He did. He used his own family as the models for the painting.
    Don't get mad! Look it up!
    By the way. When the Portugese were sent to West Africa, they had to learn 2 languages to communicate with the people they found there. Hebrew and Aramaic. Why is that?
    Don't get mad! Look it up!
    When the Arabs were asked by a Missionary who those people were, the Arabs told them "Those are the people of the book.
    Which book is that?
    Don't get mad! Look it up!

    It is not important for you to know my name.

    Honestly im not muslim nor do i believe in the nation of islams teachings but regardless king solomon was black because the bible says so period. people cant argue with scripture and this is important to me a Black man or any other black because we have know history. Now with this knowledge given that should be preached in every church across the globe because now children and adults can read the bible as our history rather than the history of the jews or hebrews. Now we can look at it as our history its more personal.

    If the color of Jesus doesn't matter, why has
    all of white Chritianity, including the Mormons
    falsely present Jesus as Caucasian. In view
    of this lie, please present biblical and scientific
    proof that Jesus was white.

Muslim Shiites against Sunnis in Pakistan, Muslims against Hindus in India, Muslims against Christians in Nigeria, Muslims against Buddhists in Thailand, Muslims against Copts in Egypt, Muslims against Christians the Philippines, Aceh (Indonesia), Kosovo (Serbia), Muslims against Maronites in Lebanon, Muslims against Jews in Israel, Muslims against Hindus in Bangladesh, Muslims against Russian Orthodox, Muslims against Greek Cypriots, Muslims agains Zoroastrians in Iran......

    Are you serious? The Catholic Church is hugely responsible for the false misrepresentation of Jesus around the world. When Min. Farrakhan corrects the many that have been told, you have a problem. Focus on stopping your priest from harassing little boys. Farrakhan told the truth, Jesus was not White, he was and is Black.

    If you want to believe that he is the devil, than believe that. I don't understand why the Catholic is expressing view about Farrakhan. What do you believe? Keep it going, all sides. What do you believe in you heart? Do you like Blacks, whites, Latino, Asians. What is the problem? I'm tired and have love in my heart for most. I think we should own what we believe. I'm not here to change anyone mind but. I choose not to hate anyone and I'm a better person for it. IF YOU BELIEVE, SPEAK OUT, TELL THE WORLD, AND OWN IT. I have grown in the past few years and some of the things that my Mom and Dad told me was not true. That's why I keep asking what do you believe. Just my thought.

    The reason he said Mary was Egyptian is that that Mohommad confused Mary with Miriam the sister of Moses. According to the Qur’an (Surah 19:28, 3:33-36), Mary, the mother of Jesus, was the daughter of Imran or Amram, the father of Moses and Aaron. Mary is also said to be the sister of Moses and Aaron. Clearly Muhammad confused Mary with Miriam. Also one of the things black people don't realize is that Islam has never condemned slavery. It was the Arabs who brought the slaves to the coast for the whites to pick them up - the white man didn't have to go into the interior of Africa to get them. And even today Omar Bashir in Sudan has enslaved many black people - Rene

    Did Farrakhan tell the truth or did he lie?

    God loves all of his creation and it is not based on man's outward appearance but his inner that God judges. Why should Farrakhan presume to judge on what God does not? Surely, if he were a man of God, he would know this; God loves the peacekeepers. Repent and pray for those who continue to incited brother against brother. Amen
