A Native Christmas

European Christmas for Native Americans actually started when the Europeans came over to America. They taught the Indian about Christianity, gift-giving , and St. Nicholas. There are actually two religious types of Indian people in existence. One of these is the Traditionalist, usually full-blooded Indians that grew up on the reservations. The second type is the Contemporary Indian that grew up in an urban area, usually of mixed blood, and brought up with Christian philosophy.

Traditionalists are raised to respect the Christian Star and the birth of the first Indian Spiritual Leader. He was a Star Person and Avatar. His name was Jesus. He was a Hebrew, a Red Man. He received his education from the wilderness. John the Baptist, Moses, and other excellent teachers that came before Jesus provided an educational foundation with the Holistic Method.

Everyday is our Christmas. Every meal is our Christmas. At every meal we take a little portion of the food we are eating, and we offer it to the spirit world on behalf of the four legged, and the winged, and the two legged. We pray--not the way most Christians pray-- but we thank the Grandfathers, the Spirit, and the Guardian Angel.

The Indian Culture is actually grounded in the traditions of a Roving Angel. The life-ways of Roving Angels are actually the way Indian People live. They hold out their hands and help the sick and the needy. They feed and clothe the poor. We have high respect for the avatar because we believe that it is in giving that we receive.

are you saying they all had this 'religion' of a 'jesus star' and so forth? no offense, but it sounds like a very modern, new agey take on native religions.

6. Yes, there is much shit of the bull.

Sandie Lee is definitely a scam artist, and I suspect that Floyd Hand aka Looks for Buffalo is as well.
It's disgusting how Christian ecumenicism tries to make it seem as though all living First Americans are actually better off after having been introduced to the bloody cross.

The adds for Wal-Mart really take one back to the high plains, don't they?

(also, the white buffalo is dead)

Peace.
