White historians, in their bid to make ancient Europeans seem White, have chosen to ignore the "obvious" relationships that must have existed between the Moors, also called the Berbers of North Africa and the people of Iberia

Sulawesi Cave Confirmed: Oldest Art in Human History Thus Far

In humans, when did creativity begin? Was it solely Europeans as has the evidence has suggested these many years? Or, is creativity simply a human trait for which we have yet to discover the remnants in other ancient civilizations? 

Enter the Indonesian island of Sulawesi. Human history will never be the same again. 
“The minimum age for (the outline of the hand) is 39,900 years old, which makes it the oldest hand stencil in the world,” said Dr Aubert.

“Next to it is a pig that has a minimum age of 35,400 years old, and this is one of the oldest figurative depictions in the world, if not the oldest one,” he told BBC News.
This also indicates a relatively stable human civilization region as the cave paintings were drawn over an 13,000 year time period. 

Other cave paintings around the world are:
Compare the painting above from Bone with the one immediately below, which is from El Castillo cave in northern Spain, and dated to be 37,300 years old by researchers at Bristol University.
What does this mean for human history? That art did not begin in Europe. This dating of the Indonesian cave art shows that art traveled with humans across history. The realization that art and creativity may have followed along to Europe from Africa itself.

Human art could go back as far as 60,000 years.

Today, I am Interviewing The One, The Only: Jesus of Nazareth

I'm sure you've gathered enough from the headline that it is an April Fool's Joke. 

Jesus is not here. He was an ordinary man who wanted people to learn their own personal power. Until the Church messed it all up and took that power unto themselves to deceive people. Alas, no one would ever believe me, so I better stick to the jolly of the day. 

So what is April Fool's Day?
It has different names in other parts of the world, but the idea of April Fool’s Day (also called All Fool’s Day) is essentially the same wherever you go, which is to try to trick someone with a good-natured prank before labeling them as a fool. You have to be careful, though, as in many parts of the world it is you who will become the fool if you don’t deliver that prank before noon.
Across the world, April Fool's Day is celebrated in unique fashion according to one's home country or culture: 
In Scotland, for instance, April Fool's Day is devoted to spoofs involving the buttocks and as such is called Taily Day. The butts of these jokes are known as April 'Gowk', another name for cuckoo bird. The origins of the "Kick Me" sign can be traced back to the Scottish observance.

In England, jokes are played only in the morning. Fools are called 'gobs' or 'gobby' and the victim of a joke is called a 'noodle.' It was considered back luck to play a practical joke on someone after noon.

In Rome, the holiday is known as Festival of Hilaria, celebrating the resurrection of the god Attis, is on March 25 and is also referred to as "Roman Laughing Day."

In Portugal, April Fool's Day falls on the Sunday and Monday before lent. In this celebration, many people throw flour at their friends.

The Huli Festival is celebrated on March 31 in India. People play jokes on one another and smear colors on one another celebrating the arrival of Spring.
So give the gift that keeps on giving and play a joke on your friends and family today. 

No, literally: today.
