<I do not know what kind of an opinion you are seeking. I find it refreshing that the Catholic deities are shown with Indian features. In the West the features are shown as white people. We all know that the one we believe in, was born in the Middle East and was probably brown and of Asian Descent, probably of Arabic features.>
From Alfred Tavares
<That he spoke, and preached in, Armaic, his descent must have been Chaldean, same as Abraham>

Dear all,
Good morning from this side!
I assume we are referring to Jesus Christ.
May I ask if we have ever been to Israel & taken a good look at what Jews look like?
ASIAN features....hunh? ......OK!?! - unless of course we are considering that the Indian "jews" aka the Chitpavan Brahmins like Tilak et al - are Asians even though - - their genetics is pointing to some Northern part of Europe.
So much for this Eastern vs Western complicacao!
BTW: What on earth (or in Heaven) are "Catholic deities"?
good wishes
jose
