>It's interesting to me that God is invariably portrayed as a white man with a beard. That's not very imaginative, is it? As is his son. In about a million paintings Jesus is drawn as European. Given the climate of the middle east, I doubt he looked European.

I guess most of the paintings you're referring to were commissioned by european aristocracy or the Catholic church so it's hardly surprsing ?
