I would have liked to have seen some of those pictures. Cannoli Send a noteboard - 22/11/2017 11:10:11 PM

I very distinctly remember pictures of Jesus from the Golden Children's Bible and he has blond hair and blue eyes. He clearly came from Valhalla to save the Aryan children.

All the religious art I saw as a kid featured a dark-haired Jesus & Mary. And a lot of that was old school stuff, since I was raised in the Latin Mass tradition by people who looked askance at anything relgious created after 1962. It was unlikely to have been illustrated with eye to reverse-whitewashing.

I'm so glad they didn't eat turkey - it gives me more ammunition when I refuse to eat turkey Tom - 21/11/2017 05:19:04 PM 701 Views
I didn't eat a turkey for Thanksgiving until my 20s. Growing up it was either goose or duck. The Shrike - 21/11/2017 05:24:35 PM 635 Views

It's been around since at least 1965 and is still in print. Tom - 22/11/2017 11:29:57 PM 773 Views
That's just...wrong. I can't imagine taking a blond god seriously enough to worship *NM* Cannoli - 23/11/2017 08:09:17 AM 366 Views
I don't know. Have you seen Chris Hemsworth as Thor? I'd worship that. A lot. The Shrike - 23/11/2017 01:45:19 PM 672 Views
I thought he was red-haired, pre-Marvel. When he was actually worshiped. Cannoli - 24/11/2017 06:15:40 PM 698 Views
Chris Hemsworth is more of a demi god than god to me. Roland00 - 25/11/2017 08:30:08 PM 651 Views
Ancient Greeks also had more blond hair based on descriptions. The Shrike - 23/11/2017 01:42:02 PM 693 Views
