The first historical reference to the Shroud of Turin is ca. 1350s. And the (now-debunked) 1988 radiocarbon dating results alleged to prove that it was a forgery created in that time period.

However, there are numerous reports of Jesus’ burial shroud being venerated in various locations before the 14th century.

As an Art History major, I personally found two points of evidence to be compelling evidence that the Shroud of Turin is not a 14th c. forgery.

First, nobody can explain how the image was created, never mind how it could have been created by a 14th c. art forger.

Second, the images below appear to me to be compelling evidence that the cloth was familiar to 11th c. Byzantine artists.

President Obama often blamed racism for violence, even before knowing any facts.

For example, when a Black Harvard professor was arrested, he rushed to judgment, announcing that the cops had “acted stupidly.” Later, it became clear the professor had been the one who was way out of line and had only been arrested as a last resort.

He also spoke in terms that could be interpreted as inciting violence.

The Democratically controlled House of Representatives voted Friday (236-173) in favor of the Equality Act. The bill amends the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to prohibit discrimination “on the basis of the sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or pregnancy, childbirth, or a related medical condition of an individual, as well as because of sex-based stereotypes.”

Twenty-three members did not vote on the Equality Act, including two Democrats seeking the 2020 presidential nomination — Seth Moulton of Massachusetts and Tim Ryan of Ohio. Continue reading →

The lies continue to come to light!

After years of hard-fought litigation, the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) has obtained copies of the immunity agreements that Cheryl Mills and Heather Samuelson made with the DOJ and FBI in regard to Hillary Clinton’s email scandal.

These documents are valuable evidence for AG Bill Barr, the IG and others who are re-investigating this mess. Barr is supposed to be a stand-up guy, so we may have reason to hope his team will finally get justice for we the people. Continue reading →

Look, there are African American men in this shot! How much did he pay them to be “blackground”? pic.twitter.com/pTkoHTIpQl — Bette Midler (@BetteMidler) July 24, 2019

The owner of BlacksforTrump2020.com contacted BlackEnterprise.com to cry foul. You can read the article at the link below.

It reminds me of a great line I saw recently on the internet. “I’m tired of racists calling me a racist.”

Amen! Aren’t we all?!
