But Jesus WAS arabic. It's a truth the fundamentalists don't accept.
People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.

Way off topic...but if you are insinuating that fundamentalists like Jerry Farwell believe that Jesus was a White European, then you are wrong. They know full well that Jesus was a Jew and therefore Middle Eastern.
I believe that the Bible is actually a story about the future, and that Jesus hasn't been born yet. Notice there is nothing in the Bible saying that there are not things like cars, planes, concrete, etc...
Just because anyone agrees with anyone, doesn't mean they are correct. Beware the thin line between what is "Correct" and what is "Popular."

There is also nothing in the Bible that says you may not Roll a 1+ and win Life. The Bible is like the 40k Rulebook, it only tells you what you can do! </rabble rabble rabble>
As for the whole "Jesus was t3h Arab thing", Sadly 51+% of people you ask (especially if they are very vocal e.g. Evangelist) will probably tell you Jesus was white. I know from living in Ireland that is what a lot of people I know anyway tend to think, and being of Jewish Blood myself (Albeit one of Russian Cossack Decent), it gets annoying.

I think that has more to do with conditioning than anything else. Consider that people depict things in familiar ways (e.i.: looks like them and/or places they know) it is not surprising that western depictions of Jesus is as a white person. In Asia, Jesus is Asian, in old African Christian cultures, he is black. People see this most of their lives and just get used to it, and that is the way it is for them, despite logical reasoning. It is a good thing, on some levels, people are more likely to listen to someone they feel they can understand, and people understand people who are like themselves, in looks, background, culture, etc... However, having Jewish ancestry myself, I am a bit offended when people ignore the major parts of the bible where it talks about Jesus being Jewish and say he was Christian. A chicken is beget by and egg!

People from the middle ages actually had some problems with the concept of past societies being different from present societies.
They would often paint biblical scenes with everyone white and wearing medieval clothing.
Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.
Actually it was more of lack of knowledge. The Bible doesn't go into so much detail as to describe small details like dress, and in many occasions terrain, in ways that someone who has never seen or otherwise had described such things to them. It would be like me asking someone to paint a picture of the Mona Lisa who had never seen it before, and all I told them was that it was a painting of a woman with a smile.
It is a major misconception that people in the ol' days were dim, or stupid. They weren't in fact they were just as smart as people are today (whom is subjectively dim and stupid, I know, but bear with me, if you would). They just did not have the ease of information we do. Every village and Kingdom pretty much had to figure everything on their own, it would be like asking someone with no conception of Mathematics to build to indefinite differentials. That was something that took several generations of Mathematicians hundreds of years to get to. Remember, nobody even knew the results of their paths! They were just flying blind and trying to make sure what they were doing was right!

QFT.
On that note, does anyone know where I can buy a set of space corridors? Oh, and maybe some industrial towers too.
"And what is wrong with their life? What on earth is less reprehensible than the life of the Levovs?"
- American Pastoral, Philip Roth
Oh, Death was never enemy of ours!
We laughed at him, we leagued with him, old chum.
No soldier's paid to kick against His powers.
We laughed - knowing that better men would come,
And greater wars: when each proud fighter brags
He wars on Death, for lives; not men, for flags.
I say! Are those examples of Litko Aerosystems spledificent space corridors and industrial towers? Where would I be able to buy a set?
