Obama's racist 'spiritual advisor'
How racist is Obama's preacher?! If a white man said something like this he would be crucified.

Maybe its just me, but I was always under the impression that Jesus was Jewish. Apparently, he's black.

Holy shit that video is awesome. The man speaks the truth. Unfortunately, he doesn’t realise that the Jesus myth was probably invented for political reasons by the Romans. Jesus, if he even historically existed at all, would've been more black than he was white, and I also love how the Vatican introduced this long-haired (which is a sin according to the bible), blue eyed, pretty boy as their savoir. I doubt anybody would care if he was some ugly, bearded, overweight middle-easterner. He looks like a poster boy for the Aryan race.

First of all, I am 99.9999% sure that Jesus is historically accurate. Secondly, most thinking Christians know that he was Arab, and thus not like that famous picture.

What makes you so sure, aside from faith? Are you trying to say that over the two millenia, if Jesus did once exist (which it isn't a fact), somethings have not been changed, edited, misinterpreted or added about him over the course of history?

The bible itself has conflicting, contradicting accounts on him, so history is also bound to.

I think there's a ton of evidence to support the fact that Jesus never existed. One of the very few major historians of Jesus' times didn't even mention him. You'd think the "Son of God" would get a shout out.

Obviously you forgot that Jesus was a ninja with mad stealth skillz.

I find any preacher who believes he is "absolutely" right prejudice. So your local priest at the Catholic church is prejudice in my opinion.

Also I couldn't help myself with posting that picture. When I saw the pictures everyone posted it reminded me of the guy from Hackers and Short Circuit.

I wish I could put politics and organized religion in a little box and bury that shit under 100 feet of ice in Antarctica.

And everyone knows Jesus was Japanese. He got his mad stealth ninja skills from being a samurai.

according to this guy, you can't run the United States properly if you've never been called a nigger.... that seems to be the only argument he's making

Too bad he wasn't exactly wrong with that bit about America's destructive excursions overseas.
