Jesus’ Nationality Scholars have long debated the exact ethnicity and nationality of Jesus. Recently, at a theological meeting in Rome, scholars had a heated debate on this subject. One by one, they offered their evidence. THREE PROOFS THAT JESUS WAS MEXICAN: 1. His first name was Jesus. 2. He was bilingual. 3. He was always being harassed by the authorities. But then there were equally good arguments that. JESUS WAS BLACK: 1. He called everybody "brother". 2. He liked Gospel. 3. He couldn't get a fair trial. But then there were equally good arguments that JESUS WAS JEWISH: 1. He went into His Father's business. 2. He lived at home until he was 33. 3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin, and his Mother was sure he was God. But then there were equally good arguments that JESUS WAS ITALIAN: 1. He talked with his hands. 2. He had wine with every meal. 3. He used olive oil. But then there were equally good arguments that JESUS WAS A CALIFORNIAN: 1. He never cut his hair. 2. He walked around barefoot. 3. He started a new religion. But then there were equally good arguments that JESUS WAS IRISH: 1. He never got married. 2. He was always telling stories. 3. He loved green pastures. But perhaps the most compelling evidence was THREE PROOFS THAT JESUS WAS A WOMAN: 1. He had to feed a crowd at a moment's notice when there was no food. 2. He kept trying to get the message across to a bunch of men who JUST DIDN'T GET IT. 3. Even when He was dead, He had to get up because there was more work for Him to do. |
