Thread Name: BS: The Indigenous Peoples Outlook
Subject: RE: BS: The Indigenous Peoples Outlook
Sorry guys, I simply thought that many would have found the words and wisdom on the video I posted hugely honest and felt a deep desire to help spread those very words around the world.

I never expected what has happened in this thread, and it saddens me.

There is good and bad everywhere. Many indigenous people have been exploited to almost extinction and yes, some have ended up becoming no better than those who did this to them...

I'm talking about how they live in harmony with the planet. Many still do, right around the world, and they have so very much to teach us. As to the customs of some tribes around the planet, I agree, what happens is often horrific, but it was the sense of being in touch with nature, leaving only footprints that I was talking about.

Anyway, no matter...it was a mistake to start this thread, I see that now.

Apologies.

Back to life as normal where the arrogant ones make the arrogant decisions about Mother Earth, never even seeing Her as that in the first place.

There are many videos out there of Indigenous People trying their hardest to get people to unite, to love the planet as they do. They are trying their best, it is all they can do. They are trying to get their voices heard above all the shite name calling that goes on....

I hear THEIR voices, not some of the ones in here.

And I know the words in that video are The Truth.
