“As I grew older, I learned that the fair-skinned, blue-eyed depiction of Jesus has for centuries adorned stained glass windows and altars in churches throughout the United States and Europe,” the story originally read, according to a screen grab from Way Back Machine. “But Jesus, born in Bethlehem, was most likely a Palestinian man with dark skin.”
It was changed a week later and it no longer has any mention of Palestine.
“As I grew older, I learned that the fair-skinned, blue-eyed depiction of Jesus has for centuries adorned stained glass windows and altars in churches throughout the United States and Europe,” it now says. “But Jesus, a Jew born in Bethlehem, presumably had the complexion of a Middle Eastern man.”
At the bottom of the article the correction reads: “Because of an editing error, an earlier version of this article referred incorrectly to Jesus’s background. While he lived in an area that later came to be known as Palestine, Jesus was a Jew who was born in Bethlehem.”

Omar Ilhan, a congresswoman who hails from a country where half the population is scientifically referred to as “mildly retarded,” used the idiotic NY Times piece as fodder for tweeting out that Jesus was not Jewish.
Ain’t no mild where she’s concerned.
IT’S NOT “FAKE NEWS”..IT’S RETARDED NEWS!!!
Palestine is the Latin word for Philistine. One region in Arabian Rome. There are no Philistines left, only Arabs, former members of the Ottoman Empire.
So..Luke 23: Pilate asking Jesus if He is King of the Jews and the notice above Jesus head during his crucifixion referring to Him as King of the Jews, we’re both just “typos”?
Omar is an O-Moron!
Yeah: there is a blond, blue-eyed Northern European Jesus in a lot of stained glass windows. In churches built by blond, blue-eyed Northern European immigrants. So, sorry about that, if it offends you… But I doubt you’ve been in those churches and had an opportunity to be offended because if you had, you’d know we don’t ‘adorn’ our altars with a ‘blue-eyed Jesus.’
Fer feck sake, do you have ANY idea what you are talking about or what an altar looks like or is?!
My curly haired, dark-eyed Saviour forgives you your ignorance and invites you into his church any time, to sit alongside the rest of us sinners.
I’ll not stoop to calling Omar mildly retarded.
I’ll just go right ahead and call her stupid. And evil.
^^^^ & I won’t stoop to using the term ‘mildly’ 😉 ^^^^
You don’t apologize for blasphemy. You beg forgiveness.
Doesn’t she realize a real musselman would cram a stick of dynamite up her ass?
Of the hundreds of thoughts that could occupy Omar’s mind, one of them is about Jesus. Pray for her that she will come to know the Lord, repent and be saved.
The ny times is a bad joke, and a mere propaganda rag for the anti-American
swamp/leftist/islamic axis.
Bethlehem is in what is now called the “West Bank.”
The nihilistic totalitarians twist their narrative to achieve certain political ends – the fact that they don’t even believe in Jesus (much less in God) doesn’t deter them from using Him (They are One) as a foil for their propaganda.
There are no Unicorns, Leprechauns, Trans-Genders, Moderate Moslems, or Benign Socialists: but that doesn’t preclude their uses in propaganda.
