Which Jesus is your Jesus?

 

As sociologists have long observed every generation projects its own values onto Jesus and thus imagines him to be the sort of fellow they themselves want to be.  Art often follows this fashion.  At least popular art.  Of the thousands of art representations of Jesus only some catch on and become standard.  The ones that catch on might tell us more about what the person is projecting onto Jesus than what He was actually like.  Of course nobody knows what Jesus actually looked like (well, we assume he was a Jew, but after that we don’t know for sure).  So, which Jesus do you lean toward?  Why?  What does this tell you about you?

Oh?  Yeah, this last one might not be of Jesus… though given the general portrayal I hear about most…I’m not so sure.   Here is a description of the Jesus I hear about most.
