It’s important to remember that the cartoon only looks happy because of our highly evolved pattern matching and facial recognition abilities. Without these we’d be toast.

Lyrics from Jesus Christ Superstar:
Look at all my trials and tribulations
Sinking in a gentle pool of wine
Don’t disturb me now I can see the answers
Till this evening is this morning life is fine
Always hoped that I’d be an apostle
Knew that I would make it if I tried
Then when we retire we can write the gospels
So they’ll still talk about us when we’ve died
I never realized the story with the loaves and fishes was about sashimi!
TO RM: this might sound snarky (it’s not), but sushi is kosher if it’s made from kosher fish. The rules is: fins AND scales. Tuna, yes; shrimp, no. Salmon, yes; uni, no (but why would you eat that nasty sh*t anyway?).
I’ve seen numerous pictures of Jesus both in Bill Maher’s “Religulous” (loved it!) and on television and no one KNOWS what Jesus looked like. He came from the Meditteranean region, was Jewish so no one today could possibly know what he actually looked like. The actual Jesus and present-day depictions….they’re NOT the same. Who’s to say he even had a moustache and beard or is that just assumed?
Are you saying that Jesus may not necessarily have been tall, thin, and Italian looking? But what about all the Medieval and Renaissance paintings? What about all the images on toast? Are you possibly implying that people just see (or paint) what they want to see?
