Funniest Ethiopian Joke Ever!

"Last fall, Egyptian archaeologists dug down 300 feet
and found traces of copper wire dating back 1000 years.
They concluded that their ancestors had a telephone
network a millennium ago.

 Not to be outdone, Sudanese scientists drilled
down 400 feet, finding traces of optical fiber that
were 2000 years old. They gloated that their ancestors
had had digital phones 1000 years before
the Egyptian analog system.

A week later an Ethiopian scientist reported, "after
digging to 500 feet, Ethiopian scientists have found
absolutely nothing. This proves conclusively that 3000
years ago, our ancestors had the most advanced
civilisation, because our ancestors were already using
wireless phones."

Ethiopia the African Tibet Show

A seeker of great wisdom travelled to the highest peaks of Tibet . At its high peak he came upon a wise monk and asked:

"What is the secret to mankind?"

The monk answered:

"I do not know....But I have a
great view of Ethiopia from here"


God Speaks through Ethiopia

In 1974, something unusual happened in Ethiopia....

It was in 1974 when science began to validate the claim that Ethiopia was indeed near or associated with the Garden of Eden, as written in the biblical chapter of Genesis in paragraph 2:13.

The three million year old fossil that became known as Lucy, found in 1974 in the Afar region, linked this country as near the cradle of life, where human evolution occured, and sparked scientific and religious controversy.

The year 1974 was when also the Ethiopian ruling monarchy and its king, the proclaimed descendents of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba, were forced from power by a regime that would impose a disastrous form of Soviet-sponsored communism.

Millions of Ethiopians would perish.

What happened in 1974 in Ethiopia has forever changed the religious, scientific, and political landscape of world history. Yet, little attention has been made to associate these two events.

Whether this was a mere coincidence or an act of "divine synchronicity" --- what is certain, Ethiopia offers a rich and unique history that extends beyond these two events. It also extends the legacy of a movement recognized as Ethiopianism.
