Is Christianity the white mans religion?

It is not a white religion or a cultural religion, it is a spiritual design.

[Grubhub]

I stopped going to the Catholic Church because there were only white people there and not a lot of people who looked like me. Most priests are Caucasian

[Lionman95]

No it's not. It's actually more growing in the Middle East, Africa or Asia.
Christianity started in the Middle East and later was transported to Europe where it became an organised system and philosophy.
Because white is metaphorically combined with light Jesus and other Christian figures are portrayed in so light colours.

[jshm2]

More or less.

It was a Greek and Roman (not a Jew) who set it up, and it has benefitted Greeks and Romans since then.

[Zeldaismyqueen]

Well it's from the middle east, who are more "brown" than white. But yes it's predominately a European religion that was given to slaves and colonial people they oppressed.

[Grubhub]

How did Europeans retrieve the revolution if Middle East had it first?

[Zeldaismyqueen]

Jesus was born in Bethlehem, which is in the middle east. Christianity is based off of Judaism, which is a religion of the middle east.. it's a very very middle eastern religion, like Islam

[Дерйа]

Actually not. Even Jesus wasn't white. So those "wanna be" Jesus pictures on the internet and in the church are completely different from the real one

[Grubhub]

They make everything white like Jesus, Santa and the tooth fairy. Jesus is white in the movies. Every church I go to the priest is white. They claim everything as white so that’s why I think Christianity is a white mans religion. I grew up a catholic and I quit the religion because I didn’t see a lot of people who looked like me. Nothing wrong with being Baptist but I didn’t wanna follow the catholic religion anymore

[Дерйа]

I'm seriously sorry for that. You know being white is considered as "being innocent/clean and flawless" since the human story, unfortunately. I'm from Middle Eastern, I mean I don't live there but my origin is from that region. I'm not Christian, and I also don't judge people by their look which is literally disgusting. I just hope that it gets better. But you're right, they show a completely different version of him which influences the entire world

Jesus was not white , but a Jew. Jews are Middle Eastern , not European. So, hate with a different reason.

[Grubhub]

She didn’t say he was white, LOL

[OfDeath]

It comes from the same places Judaism and Islam came from which is the middle east. So technically no. The white man's religion would be more things like the Nordic and pagan religions of ancient Scandinavia, Britain and France (Gaul).

[dreamstar72]

Since Jesus color was not an issue why are we so interested in our color.

[Grubhub]

It is an issue because I’m every biblical book or movie they make em white when most people know he wasn’t white

[dreamstar72]

Don’t that make you racist if you care so much about skin color.

[Grubhub]

Do white people not judge blacks in grocery stores or pretty much everywhere they go? As a black man I actually stopped going to churches that was predominantly white because I’ve experienced discrimination by those white folks

[Grubhub]

White people are more racist than anybody, if it weren’t for white people racism wouldn’t be what it is today

[BCRanger10]

No. It was established to "announce the Gospel to all nations".

[grega239]

It comes from the middle east so no.
It was also largely forced onto europeans as their old religions were erased.

[TwoToTooTutu2]

No, Paganism is. Modern Christians are spicy pagans.

[OddBeMe]

Prob majority. Though there are a lot of Asian Christians. Never discount India in population…

[debbiedenise]

It is sure not the white woman's religion. LOL!

[IAMNathanael]

Anyone can be a Christian

[MrCommodore]

No, it was the Roman Empire's chosen religion.

[anylolone]

Nope. It's a universalist religion.

[DarcRefractions]

I think so.
