Hey Buzz!
Well, he was probably Arab looking - but I have been told that it is the same thing.
My car club used to have meetings in a church - they had pics all over the place of this white guy with honey blond hair. A few years ago some study group made a computer model of what Jesus likely looked like and someone in the club printed it and hung up the photo in the club room (we took it down before leaving) It was a lot more like Arafat than Aryan.
One guy in the club really got bent out of shape - told us all we were going to hell. We could not convince him that Jesus probably looked like every other person living in the area at the time.
When I went to China a few years ago I really felt a bit Jesuslike - I was the only blond person for miles, and they all wanted to touch me so that my magic could rub off on them. Ok, they just really wanted to touch my hair - but I can pretend!
