No.
Obvious comedy.
But then again, why waste an opportunity to paint someone racist?
Associating Mediterraneans with olives sounds racist to me....
Transparent race baiting.

If that's your idea of comedy, leave it to the liberals. We're better at it.
Gods will always look like the dominant practicing demographic, so JC is white today/now. Give it a couple thousand years, and if Christianity survives, JC may be much more Eastern or Latin looking. ;)

What the idiots on fox are arguing was whether he was a swarthy mediterranean caucasian or a light skinned northern european caucasian.

To be "better at it", you first have to have a sense of humor.

People who say "Fail" are usually the ones doing it. "Fail" has become a fill in for, "Well, I have no argument, but I still want to be an ass, so here's a cliché that doesn't apply.".
Only a white dude would act like Jesus, who was very touchy, high strung and judgmental. You could just see the Pharisees covering their ears as he launches into yet another diatribe about why they have it wrong, and how they just don't get it.
Pharisees were the most judgemental of all given their multitude of old testament "laws."

How pervasive is Caucasian-normative culture? It just is, so you know.

And in Kelly's defense, it does seem likely that Jesus had blond hair and blue eyes, since that is very common in the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern countries. And he existed for sure, because otherwise why would they write Gospels about him if he didn't? Hmmm?
My question for the Christians would be, do you think there would be as many avid Christians in the white community had Jesus been black? Or was it necessary to expropriate a Jew and a Jewish religion and give him European features for the religion to spread?
