Portraits of LDS Jesus are fake

[_Shulem]

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is guilty of constantly publishing photos and pictures of an idealized image of what they want to see in a portrait of Jesus Christ. It's always what they want and prefer -- a style and image that suits the LDS house fancy. The church is incapable of representing an image of an honest or realistic picture of what Christ may have actually looked like. Just the fantasy versions that spins their faith however they want to dream it.

Everything about Mormonism is so fake and so made up. The photos they use for Jesus in church magazines or periodicals are nothing but propaganda. The image of the LDS Jesus is simply too unbelievable for honest and objective thinkers that have any degree of intelligence.

They're fake? Of course they're fake. Do you think Christ sat for a portrait session or posed for a quick photo op? What do you want - a selfie? As for what Christ may actually have looked like. Only those who have seen him can say for sure. We can make assumptions based on the area of the world and culture he was born into. But they are still assumptions to a large degree.

I'm glad to hear you admit that they are indeed fake. Nothing realistic about them. Just the best possible feel-good portraits in order to stir up faith and emotion. Such is the blue eyed starry looking Jesus dressed in perfectly clean robes.

Intelligent assumptions have been made more recently about what Jesus may have actually looked like and these are based on science. Somehow, though, I get the impression the LDS church would never use such images for their own purposes. Mormons are totally into image and how things look rather than how things really are or were. Totally fake.

Will the real Jesus please stand up:

I have a theory, Jesus is really a being from another dimension. For the sake of argument, let’s say he’s from the 5th dimension.

5D Jesus comes to visit 3D Joe Smith. Joe Smith had never met an Israelite before and therefore didn’t know what an Israelite would typically look like. Instead, Joe Smith can only perceive 5D Jesus in Joe Smiths 3D world. So how does 3D Joe Smith describe 5D Jesus? As a corporate man looking for golden treasure because that’s what Joe Smith understood 5D Jesus to represent. See, problem solved as to why Jesus looks like a corporate attorney.

That’s the idealized image of what they wish Jesus looks like.

I imagine people from different racial, ethnic, and religious groups like to see their heroes as similar to themselves.

Corporate Mormon Jesus is my best friend!

Mr Penguin,

I cannot count the times I have laughed outloud from your posts.

You truly are a treasure.
