    Questions

    I never assumed that you were uncaring. I was simply presenting a perspective from the viewpoint of some of my people. Truth is not something to debate.

    Questions

    It is not my way or desire to insult, however I am also no pillow-prophet. I am here to enlighten regarding the forum titles. It is to ones own to regard the notion that there is more than one religion. It is to ones own to look (or not look) beyond human ego for the truth. When most...

    Questions

    I have read the Bible from an open-minded perspective. Perhaps easier for me to do than most indigenous people, because the remnants of my people were never put on reservations nor are they descendents of children taken to white-Indian schools. In short...we never had "Christianity" shoved...

    Questions

    I try not to be too sensitive, but I am sensitive for good reason. Indigenous children do not need to feel inferior because biblical/european faith is reality based and theirs is based upon myth. They do NOT need to feel ashamed for what they are and who their ancestors were. Religion is...

    Questions

    Yes, we prefer to be regarded by our original tribal name. Apache, Navajo, Comanche, etc. etc. etc. That is a given. Perhaps I did not word my question correctly, but I was referring to what indigenous people prefer to be called if they have to contend with the general terminology given by...

    Questions

    At the risk of starting a "hot topic" here. I just have to be religiously correct here and ask a few questions. I am not trying to be insulting, but this is supposed to be about religious education...right? Question 1: Most indigenous people prefer to be called American Indians. Why are...

    Human longevity

    The evidence is in scientific study. Not in what has been studied and known already. Medical science will advance considerably when scientists discover certain realities. I am not a great geneticist, I simply know some who ARE, and I know a lot about the history of the planet. Some...

    Human longevity

    Truth will be revealed eventually. It is rather like being in a time and place where people swore that the world was flat. Those rare few who tried to tell them that it was round had to just let them discover it for themselves.

    Human longevity

    It is not just based upon looks, but I won't go into that. A mammal possessing a certain degree of reptilian genetics is not necessarily going to be cold-blooded. The human body not only cannot be classified as being as hairy as most species of mammals, but is also much more erect/elongated...

    Human longevity

    One can tell by simply looking at the features of a chimp that there is a closer genetic relationship to humans than other animals. The point is that human genetics is closer to reptilian than chimps are. That should be easy to see as well. Sorry...I am a hairy guy, but nothing like an ape...

    Human longevity

    You appear to be speaking in a perspective of how things are in these times. The blending or breeding is something which actually occurred long ago. A process which took millions of years. More of a "selective breeding" or initiated breeding was done by those of a higher mental capacity...

    Religion as delusion and Freud's suggestion to Deists.

    I cannot understand why many who claim Religion even bother. They certainly do not have enough knowledge of Religion to adhere to it by anything other than blind faith. If I did not have knowledge of certain key facts about Religion, I would likely be an atheist. I am much more a realist than...

    Human longevity

    In the Hierarchy, it is considered honorable to eat two meals a day and MOST honorable to eat one. There are a rare few on the planet who have direct lineage to pre-adamite beings and who at various times in their lives, lose their addiction to food. They go through a complete metamorphic...

    Human longevity

    There is no specific source regarding this. There have been medical scientists who have stated it. There are numerous sources on "Breatharianism" or what is sometimes referred to as "Living on Light" or "Inedia". Many are "con" as well as "pro" on the subject. The fact is that achieving the...

    Human longevity

    There are many who think that human longevity is gradually increasing. Science has shown that the human body is designed to last closer to 2,000 years rather than 100 as is the norm of today anyhow. The Old Testament of the Bible states specifically that there were those born shortly after the...

    Do You Believe that Evolution is True?

    Scientific evidence shows that humans do indeed share a common genetics with a lot of species. Ancestry? If humans are a hybrid, that goes without saying. The truth is that in the creation process, the mammalic bodies of apes were abandoned for a breeding toward a more reptile incorporated form...

    which translation is your favorite?

    None of the translations is perfect. The King James version is the closest to accuracy. Why is it important? Here is an example... Often, in earlier times, words or phrases had different meanings than percieved. Just like the word "cool" is meant to be something other than having to do...

    Native American Spirituality

    The root of American Indian faith is more biblical than most could ever imagine. It is less "alternative religion" than Christianity. :mad:

    Do You Believe that Evolution is True?

    Looks like an OK spot to throw my 2 cents in. :) The "Big Bang" theory is just what it says...a theory. There should be no doubt that the history of the world is not without its evolutionary processes. People tend to become confused about how there can be a "creation" AND an evolutionary...

    God sacrificed to God?

    I perhaps shouldn't use the word "Zionist". It sounds too anti-semitic...which I am not. I have no problem with the "deity" of Jesus either. I simply tend to hold that there are far too many who have the wrong interpretation of Religion and their "Christian" perspectives are rather...
