Explain This Picture.

That's what I thought. :BL:

The more you study it, the more confusing it becomes. If you stare at it long enough, you become cross eyed...:wacko:

In the top right take a look at what appears to be 3 graves.

Great spot.

I wonder what those graves mean? "If you become Christian, you'll become worm-food?"

[Singh559]

My three guesses so far:

Someone with a superficial saintly appearance bringing "answers" to a family who is spiritually deprived of the truth. The person bringing the truth is imposing his views on this Indian family who seems to have lost a historical foundation.

An indian christian missionary saying:"If you convert to Christianity you can easily get a visa to go to America"

and

The missionary people don't care as long as these people convert and die as Christians in hopes to become the largest and most dominant religion in the world. Even if they do become a vastly dominant religion with no other religion left, they will all be spiritually deprived and lost till the very end. None of Jesus's teachings are really being followed, all they care about is how many converts they can get

[VanHelsingh]

The real Jesus is something most people now wouldn't believe. He was a very humble and honest saintly person who traveled quite a bit. He even went to the Himalayans and stayed with Monks for quite some time...

Yes, the "Lost Years of Jesus". I read somewhere that the Church has completely airbrushed those missing years from Jesus' life. I hear Jesus also believed in the transmigration of souls, amongst other eastern, religious philosophies. It's fascinating if true.

He did and i sincerely believe he did.

Whatever it is, it's clear modern Christians have strayed from the simple path of truthful living...

Not that it makes a difference, but does anybody know what colour Jesus was!

Was he black, white, or brown? (I'm not trying to right a pop song by the way!)

LIke you said, even though it doesn't matter, brown.

He had kesh and there's evidence in the bible he wore a turban.

http://bible.cc/leviticus/8-9.htm

Exodus 29:6 Put the turban on his head and attach the sacred diadem to the turban.

Exodus 28:4 These are the garments they are to make: a breastpiece, an ephod, a robe, a woven tunic, a turban and a sash. They are to make these sacred garments for your brother Aaron and his sons, so they may serve me as priests.

New Living Translation (©2007)

He placed the turban on Aaron's head and attached the gold medallion--the badge of holiness--to the front of the turban, just as the LORD had commanded him

From what I've read, he looked like a Palestinian in skin tone. A far cry from the blonde / light-brown haired and blue-eyed image of Jesus, that the Americans of the Deep South have plastered over their walls & inside their churches.

I prefer Madonna's version of Jesus, though. :D

[harsimran kaur]

There was a picture in a science magazine about what Jesus probably looked like, ie. average jewish guy with curly black hair. I've seen pictures of black and asian looking Jesus too, every nation wants to own him. In any case, he always has longish hair and beard.

I think what the picture is trying to tell us is that if you suffer from the blue skin and unfeasably long arm disease you should go and see this crazy giant woman that lives by a tree. She'll cure your affliction by hitting you over the head with a home made hammer.
