Subject: RE: BS: Native American's had African slaves???
I would point out that the issue of homosexuality is not the big deal it is in White society. They had no religious strictures against it, and subsequently those peoples who were able to escape the influence of Catholicism, Anglicanism or Methodism have no hatred of homosexuals, or at least it seems so to me. I lived amongst native peoples for five years, and my sister's family is half/half Ojibwa/White. Bottom line is this: if you're nice to them they will be nice to you. Nothin' new about that idea, but it's a thought that on occasion escapes some folks.
