Question: Why does the Catholic church portray Christ as a white guy with brown hair and blue eyes?
Over the years I have known several individuals and families who were very much involved with the Catholic church. Along with indirectly worshiping the pope, I remember they always had pictures of Christ in their homes and churches that always showed Jesus as a white guy with brown hair and blue eyes. According to the bible and other history resources they say Jesus was of Middle Eastern descent. I was just wondering why the Catholic church makes him look like Al from that show “Home Improvement”.
In regards to what “sparki777” wrote :

I don’t have anything against Catholicism or any other religion defined by its superstitious beliefs. Regarding what you said about your pope : I never understood why the Catholic church uses a religious middleman they call the pope to supposedly spread the word of worship to its followers. Even your bible says that Christ is the only way to reach God and follow the path of righteousness, so why does the Catholic church use another imperfect human being to lead the Catholics?

I am good friends with an internationally renown Hollywood heavyweight. If I tell you his name I am sure you have seen at least 2 or 3 of his movies. His management company and its agents profit an enormous amount just on their percentage cut of his base salaries. So my question is : Is the pope trying to make his own cut?

whitewash furniture has peaks and troughs in its popularity. It’s popularity is currently increasing pretty quickly and this is reflected in the quite steep prices that some people are charging. There are places that you can buy high quality white furniture such as bedroom furniture for good a good price, but if you want to make your own here is how.

1.First you need to sand down whatever pierce of furniture you wish to whitewash. A sanding block or electrical sander should be suitable to do this but you might need to strip it chemically if there is a thick build up of paint on the piece.Now wipe the wood down with a wet cloth to removed dust, dirt and sawdust. Wait for wood to become touch dry

2.Next find a container and mix two parts white paint (ideally latex paint) with one part water. You’ll need a bowl of clean water to correct any mistakes you make and a 3″ brush. Brush the wood following along the line of the grain and use broad sweeping strokes. The watery paint has a habit of soaking into the wood quickly so you’ll need to go over area well.

3.When you have competed covering the item but before the paint has a chance to dry, wipe over it carefully to uncover the grain slightly. This is give the wood a light stain look but if you want a deeper more expensive look, just repeat the previous steps as many times as you like, four should do it though.

4.When you are happy with the look, give it a light sanding again to bring out the grain again and then seal the wood using clear satin polyurethane. Let it dry, give it a rub down with an abrasive nylon pad and repeat the process to achieve desired look. Use this method to create a great white bathroom mirror, bedside table or even dresser.
