Well there is that Black Madonna in the Benedictine Abbey of Einsiedeln, SZ, but I thought that it resulted from smoke damage from a French invasion.

#4 The Left doesn't realize they're making the lists for us for when they lose the Civil War. Do on to the Left what they did to everyone else in the 20th Century.

#6 A liberal artist relation casually threw into a Facebook conversation the scornful comment that Jesus is “dark skinned and Hebrew“ a week ago, contrasting that reality to the fair, blue-eyed images in European and American churches. She did it just to insult my religious Christian mother-in-law, whose niece she is, assuming bigotry and ignorance that does not exist, not to mention forgiveness and tolerance that does.

Historically, Christian artists have depicted Jesus looking like the local congregants. So images from the early centuries in Ethiopia and Libya show him with decidedly African features, in China as Han Chinese, while more recentlyGauguin painted him bright yellow.

This call to destroy “White Jesus” is profoundly parochial and ignorant.

Seems that is what we are dealing with these days--American Taliban.

#9 They just need national bloodshed to keep the chaos alive for November and keep attention off of what the progressive socialists offer as president, a warmed over dotard and a black female radical in the wings to cement the end of the republic. They are succeeding in making the election about voting against Trump and not at all about policy and what would happen if the radical left won the tools needed to commit national suicide.
