In the 1950s there was a Christian movement to have artists correct all depictions of Jesus with a sensible crew cut.
I’m making that up, but it still could be true.

I think it’s the Seventh Day Adventists who still do it that way?
Hank Green had a good video on this a while back
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 days ago Technically nobody knows what Jesus looked like.
DupaCycki@lemmy.world 2 days ago Short hair would have been unusual in the time and period, though, unless you were a filthy R*man sympathizer!
Certainly not like a Scandinavian.
Probably more like a brown Palestinian man.
This is more likely what he looked like, but it doesn’t match “Supply Side Jesus” teachings.
Mormons too
Jesus has a hair part, where is yours?
From the top of one ear to the top of the other!
Back in medieval times, there were once few sects like Hutterites practicing what Jesus had preached, most notably separation of church and state, and also communal living.
One can easily guess what happened to some of them. 🌚
Once Saul the pharisee started publishing his hot takes it was down hill after that. then the council of nicaea got a bunch of powerful dudes together and they decided what was and wasn’t convenient. now we have hot water garbage thats able to freely and EASILY use the bible to do andichrist activities.
And how are their families holding up?
