maybe it's just me, but i found out something profound. jesus and his apostles weren't white! haha ok. in fact, peter and paul are asians (from turkey and asia minor). i wonder why most of the pictures depict these biblical people as being caucasian though...

no "asia minor" merely refers to the middle eastern/persian geographical area. Ethnically they are not what we commonly refer to as "asian"
