I admit that when I think of Jesus the first image that pops into my mind is the Western concept of long hair/beard, white, etc.
however logically I doubt that's the case, I think the article makes good points... then again I don't really think it matters what he looked like.

Maybe doesn't matter so much now (though there are probably hard-core Christians that would reject that Jesus was anything but white).
Back in the day when race made a difference, it was probably pretty important for Jesus to be a white guy. After all, you can't enslave a bunch of people who are the same colour as Jesus, that just wouldn't be right
