  • Nennt mich ignorant, aber ich sehe nicht wo hier irgendein Problem gelöst wird. Thienemann verwässert den historischen Kontext des Werkes in dem es ein Wort mit ziemlich neutraler Sprachwurzel streicht (hier würden Bildung und Aufklärung vielleicht helfen) und den Artstyle ein Bisschen abändert, der ebenfalls historischen Hintergrund hat, allerdings in keinem (gewollten) abwertenden Zusammenhang steht.

    Ich fände es sehr interessant zu wissen wie sich die Meinungen in der betroffenen Community verteilen, denn für mich macht es den Eindruck als würde der gemeine Alman mal wieder den weißen Ritter spielen (no pun intended).

    What I don’t like about a lot of atheists is that they want to force a narrative thats simply not true. I myself am an agnostic, fyi.

    Although most claim they are men of science, they often simply fall back on striking populism.

    I understand what this picture is trying to communicate, but Jesus was most probably a historical figure, just not the one that the Bible is trying to make of him and he most certainly did not have SUCH a dark skin tone, just take a look at the average Palestinian.

    Other than that in a religious context Jesus gets portrayed very different in different regions with different common phenotypes so that there is more room for identification for the average Christian and making it easier for the particular population to convert. In East Asia for example Jesus gets portrayed quite East-Asiatic, whereas in Western countries he often gets portrayed more like an average Westerner. Thats because in a religious context his actual phenotype doesn’t really matter.
