I think that you're confusing olive-skinned (Spanish, Italian, Greek, Turkish, Jewish) with arabic-skinned (ie arabs).
And the Jews are a race, not just a religion. Mohammad's mummy was a Jew.

is because the jewish faith is a closed one as they view themselves as a chosen people.

Some other faiths do not dispute the claim that the jewish people were the chosen people.

That is not the point, they are still effectively a closed religion, so they will have a closed gene pool.

Anyway, my take on this is that he could have been anything - I know Jews with darker skin and arabs do not necessarily have 'brown' skin at all. A girl who is pure (or as pure as you can get) arab at school is paler than me, but then I'm not that pale.
Okay, I give up - it doesn't really matter whether Jesusu was black or white, whether he even existed or not. While I don't practice any religion, some of the teachings in Christianity are good ones to consider. That's what was the point of him really I suppose. If I've spoken rubbish...erm its likely. Just kick me or something.

i hope he was black because i wonder how it would affect peoples ideas and beliefs

I don't think it would affect anyone's beliefs.
Jesus will have looked a lot like the people living in Israel and Palestine today - i.e. not black, but not in the way he is depicted in most religious art. Most Christians understand this perfectly well. It doesn't change anything about the religion.

it would not change the religion but it may force extremist christian groups such as the KKK to reconsider their position.

So basicaly what we all seem to be saying is His colour doesnt really matter to anyone with a brain. Is that a suitable conclusion?

Someone made a joke earlier in the thread about there being a blue race, it would be good if Jesus was a blue man. Then only one goup of people could claim him as theirs; people.
(oh, and, er... blue people as well)
I don't think you can necessarily assume that because Jesus was born in the Middle East that he looked like the people who live there now. I don't think there's any evidence of where his parents were born (i mean his genetic parents
), they could have been born anywhere, so they could have been black, white or blue (a little unlikely). Are there any physical descriptions of his parents?
It would be funny regarding the KKK if we found out he was black, but on the other hand there are groups who would be able to make use of his blackness for their own agenda.
It's probably better that we never find out what colour he was. And anyway, it doesn't matter.

Well his parents were jewish, so it follows that since the jews are quite a closed race, jesus would have the look of jews.

He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces He was despised, and we esteemed Him not. Isaiah 52:14 - 53:1-3

We do not really know what race Jesus is because we have not seen him. However we could use our knowledge and say, because he was Jewish, then he will probably be a jewsish colour which is not black or white.
