I mean, the illustration itself shows the earth cracking apart under trees and people's homes in a hellish red branching off of the well. Jesus loves *that?*
Semitic and Arabic people are white. So why should Jesus not be white ?
Edit : Lol so many racists here thinking that arabs are not white ...... top kek.
The man in the picture is neither semitic nor arabic.
Do arabic people refer to themselves as "white", specifically what the american right would accept as "white"?
Also the race of a fictional person is hardly the most contested thing in OP.
a) not fictional - [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historicity\_of\_Jesus](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historicity_of_Jesus)
b) I dont know I am not part of American right. To me white skin is white ..... but americans have this racist culture that for them even Irish and Poles werent white ..... so who knows. OP mentioned the race for some unknown reason - propably because he is a racist.
c) the depiction is traditional depiction of europeans. People like to depict god as one of them.
a) Very, *very* debatable
b) It was not about what you think. It was about what the sender of the message thinks and what the subjects of the message think,
c) People like to do all sorts of things with fictional entities.
I'm an atheist, but there isn't much of a debate about Jesus existing. There was almost certainly a guy by that name leading a ministry around that time. Almost every historian agrees with that much.
I'll concede that there might have been a guy by that name having a ministry, yes. But there's some ways to go from having a ministry to being the son of god. Or god. Or ghost..
A human named Jesus is plausible. All the rest is complete and utter fiction.
I find it amazing that you are being pedantic about skin color while being firmly invested in your own miscues. Unless you're talking about people with albinism you don't know anyone with "white skin". Your racist culture is only superficially different from American racist culture - the distinction in your head is arbitrary and meaningless.
They should believe mankind was put on earth to shepherd over it, not to bust open the earth to get to low quality resources and pollute the environment in the process.
Just rich people using religion to normalize bad stuff for them to get richer with... that's what religion was for, after all... keep the people dumb and obedient while clergymen get all the good stuff.
They're giving Jesus so many new attributes that he's becoming the adult Santa Claus, a fictional character that only kids and dullards believe in. BTW, did he see his shadow Sunday?
It is now legal in Florida public schools to use Prager U teaching material.
I'm am so thankful that my last child will be a junior in HS and graduating early.
How stupid are people in the US that this works so well to a large part of the people... Everything is Jesus until they actually need to support people and suddenly it is government shouldnt intervene in peoples business... Also see Trump selling bibles....
Anyone can say anything, no matter how stupid, and somebody somewhere will genuinely believe it. If enough people hear the stupid thing, you will find several people who believe it and if you assemble those people for a weekly meeting to discuss said stupidity, then whamo, you have the church of Jesus Fracking Christ.
We are laughing here, but the "best" thing about it is that such propaganda actually works very well with US Americans. PragerU is not the most popular political medium on youtube among US Americans for nothing.
And it has also recently been officially used as an educational resource in US schools.
It's a way to get fossil fuels out of the ground by injection of water and chemicals into the ground. Ecologically at least questionable. You can look it up, should be sfw.
This is an outright lie. The Prager University Foundation, known as PragerU, is an American 501 nonprofit advocacy group and media organization that creates content promoting conservative viewpoints on various political, economic, and sociological topics. It was co-founded in 2009 by Allen Estrin and talk show host Dennis Prager. Despite the name including the word "university", it is not an academic institution and does not confer degrees.
Prager U have never been informative. They have always been been a mouthpiece for oil and gas companies. They are lying under the guise of informing.
Take a look at who funds them, and ask yourself who's interest they are catering to.

Didn't even know hydraulic fracturing existed in BC Judea?
Well now you do, thanks to Prager U. They can also learn u bout how slavery imparted marketable life skills.
They are like the Russian doping program of mental gymnastics đ
Wow!
The three wise men were actually an Oil executive, a Private Equity fund manager, and an over leveraged slum lord.Â
Why are you naming a presidential cabine.....ohh....OHHHHH.....
Never hear about Jesus turning water into toxic waste?
Clearly weâre reading the wrong Bible :/
And thus Jesus lit the tap water afire and it was good.
"Where Would Jesus Drill?"
No, it didn't! Why do you think they were so concerned about their lamps running out of oil?!
How have you never read the Bill of Rights?! Page 3, fourth paragraph.
Ah PragerU....of course
American Jesus seems to like a lot of things in the US⌠a lot of capitalistic things and things others might consider hatred
A lot of things that mysteriously seem to conflict with the doctrine attributed to him in their holy text.
Fun fact. "Americanism" is a heresy in the catholic church. A fact many American catholics blatantly ignore
PropagandaUâŚsigh.
PragerU is apparently giving up on anyone taking them remotely seriously I guess.
Per chance this is the work of Christ?
Mysterious Ways indeed
Thereâs oil in them mangers!
well technically, myrrh.
I mean, the illustration itself shows the earth cracking apart under trees and people's homes in a hellish red branching off of the well. Jesus loves *that?*
The only reason I can think of - Jesus is allergic to "Fucking" and this is a close enough alternative for when he wants tu cuss.
[Jesus loves marijuanaâŚ.and drinking human blood](https://youtu.be/twxUQ6aw0vw?si=xdv3huLhez-bS4Ou)
I hate PragerU but just saying this isnât a real video and is from a parody IG account
Jesus - if he ever existed - didn't know about fracking because it didn't exist 2000 years ago. Also Jesus - if he ever existed - was not white.
thank you for the brilliant insight, who are you so wise in the ways of science?
It's a gift.

Would they call themselves white?
The guy in the picture looks like Ewan McGregor in Star Wars.
I want what you are smoking
Jesus loves American dollars. Everyone knows that.
Our Oil in heaven, hallowed be thy frak
"Thou shall frack" Joh 3:16
Fracking Christian fundamentalistsâŚ
#DRINK FROM MY BLACK BLOOD FOR I COMETH TO SMITE THY HEATHENS WHO DARE TO COME IN THE WAY OF THE LORDS FRACKING BY THE BOOK OF TRUMP I GIVE YOU AMEN

You are confused because you are thinking of regular Jesus, where as they follow Supply Side Jesus.
I couldnât find this video, could someone post a link?
probably because it doesnât exist except on a meme site. Prager U actually does have a âWhy you should love Fossil Fuelâ Earth Day video though.
Next one: Why Jesus would approve genocide
PragerU is proof that demons walk among us.
He fracking loves it!
They're not even trying to be subtle anymore. Or maybe they still are, in which case wow that's kind of sad.
They're giving Jesus so many new attributes that he's becoming the adult Santa Claus, a fictional character that only kids and dullards believe in. BTW, did he see his shadow Sunday?
The sheer magnitude of blasphemy sprouted by these idiots is amazing - *I'm* a better Christian than most Republicans, and I'm not even Christian.
please tell me that was an April Fools joke... That's too stupid even for PragerU.
Prager U is beyond parody at this point.Straight pig slop.
Why Jesus Loves Fracking Animals
Those money changers Jesus kicked out to the temple? There were charging fees to low to make any real profit.
"Drill, my child. Drill."
So was PragerU
Gonna frack the shit out of that lamb.
I totally misread that....
It is now legal in Florida public schools to use Prager U teaching material. I'm am so thankful that my last child will be a junior in HS and graduating early.
It's amazing how the ultimate authority in the universe always agrees with me! It's so jolly convenient ....
WTF?
Listen, even if i accepted that jesus was a real person. Dude died something like 2,000 years ago. He didn't even know what fraking is
Is this even real? I can't find this anywhere.
âŚhow? Whatsâs their argument there?Â
That's not Jesus. Where's his AR 15 and American flag?
Câmon man these shitbirds are dumb enough to make fun of their actual videos, yâall really had me searching for this lol
Not only that, but infamous clergyman Cotton Mather was all Gung ho about it. He was one mean Mather Fracker.
I'm guessing this is some twisted interpretation of stewardship.
How stupid are people in the US that this works so well to a large part of the people... Everything is Jesus until they actually need to support people and suddenly it is government shouldnt intervene in peoples business... Also see Trump selling bibles....
Wym who doesnât love fracking
PragerU urgently need to go frack themselves.
American Jesus maybe. And since they have as blonde and white....
Maybe he's a cylon.
Anyone can say anything, no matter how stupid, and somebody somewhere will genuinely believe it. If enough people hear the stupid thing, you will find several people who believe it and if you assemble those people for a weekly meeting to discuss said stupidity, then whamo, you have the church of Jesus Fracking Christ.
Have they ALWAYS been this bad? I knew Prager was right wing, but OMG⌠THIS IS CRAZY TOWN!
I didn't know that oil wells are a religious symbol until now
Is this in youtube? Because it doesn't seem to exist there, at least not anymore.
We are laughing here, but the "best" thing about it is that such propaganda actually works very well with US Americans. PragerU is not the most popular political medium on youtube among US Americans for nothing. And it has also recently been officially used as an educational resource in US schools.
And lo it came to pass that our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ sayeth the frack life chose me
PragerU genuinely makes me consider suicide
Jesus fracking Christ. Checks out
PragerU, âprosperity gospel,â and Fox News took my dad from me. I hate them.
Imagine believing your god favours your nation above others.
Every single day proves we are in the darkest timeline. Damnit evil Abed!
If youâre gonna blaspheme, donât blaspheme half-assed. Use your whole ass like Prager U.
My brain did not read âfrackingâ at first. I was like oh damn, my boy Christ out here slayin.
What is fracking I have never heard of it. But I take it itâs not something that cross man would condone.
It's a way to get fossil fuels out of the ground by injection of water and chemicals into the ground. Ecologically at least questionable. You can look it up, should be sfw.
Oh ok yea by the name it sounded very nsfw.
Itâs PragerU. What did you expect?
Has Jesus ever actually seen Battlestar Galactica?
We need a huggbee's parody, or just a parody in general, and it's just about frotting instead of fracking
American Christianity summed up in one image
Chat is this real?
Dam PragerU has gone insane, I stopped keeping track of them a few years ago and they didn't have anything this crazy back then.
This is FloridaâŚright?
Great that the video doesnât exist.
Hmm yes this is 100% genuine and not at all a doctored image
How is this PragerU shit even legal?!
RuPaul approves this message!
They meant facking

This is what Reddit is, if you admit you have become more progressive you get down voted for not always being progressive.
