They all look like they look and no harm done and stirring things up doesn't seem to help. Ever. Finding good in others is sometimes easy and sometimes hard, but worth the effort.
There are issues, valid issues that are relevant in today's world that are racial. but to me, this isn't one of them.

Well it should be worth the effort. The truth will set you free if you can find it. When a public figure lies, they should be called. Jesus was not a white man and as a Christian, I take offense when intentional lies are told about The Lord.
I think it has offended Christians around the world. Jesus resembled Mohamed more so than the pope. We all have limits on what we find offensive and for me this is one.
