As I do nearly every time of rare instance of television viewing, I saw something most interesting last night on Idaho Public Televisions Learn/Create digital broadcast channel. An episode of Ric Steves Europe titled Germanys Black Forest and Cologne. I was not prepared to take notes so I do not know the location of the cathedral or church in which is the Christ crucifixion statue that I think he said was from circa late 800s (again I was not taking notes and couldnt recall the exact year stated before what was shown on the screen caught my attention). Steves did not remark on the image of Christ presented in the statue but what I saw was Christ portrayed with bronzed or dark skin and thick long black hair, appearing to my eyes to indicate African lineage mixed with Israeli lineage (Israeli in this sense meaning appearing closer to todays Lebanese, Jordanians, or Palestinians, all of whom have lineage connections to the original Israeli tribes led out of Egypt by Moses). That artwork is evidence that Europeans once accepted an image of the Christ as an Afro-Israeli (or Afro-Palestinian) rather than as a European and that there is a moment in European history after that era that this image was eradicated and replaced by an Anglocized or Europeanized image of Christ. This is also evidence that racism is not innate in people but is indeed something they must be taught. Just speculation, but based upon logic that there is a reason tiny shreds of the Sheba story are including in both the Jewish and Muslims scriptures, I think perhaps Christ was a descendant of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. I received personal revelation a week or so ago that her kingdom might have been in the Cameroon area. Salams. Praise Allah.
