The truth is, there was a time when even the Native Americans were not in the land we call America. If that is so, then are they really the "rightful owners". Also, "white CHRISTIANS" are not the only peoples living in America. It is impossible to right the wrongs of the past. Instead, maybe we should all concentrate on doing our part to make the world a better place by putting aside issues of race, ethnicity, and religious differences, and instead realize the humanity that we have IN COMMON and develop compassion for each other. To paraphrase Gandhi, be the change that you seek.

Errrrr, i'm not sure why JUST white christians should leave, there are many other people who own land that doesn't belong to them if we go along with what your saying.
Many are black, hispanic, chinese, etc, why just white christians?
The red indians do own this country more than the others but, if we start going down that road we'll have the UK full of Australians because the Aborigines own Australia.
On the other hand, does that mean we get to boot out everyone whose not 20 generations English?
Mmmmm, maybe not a bad idea after all then.

do not you imagine it really is a touch late for that? fairly some human beings stay in this usa that are literally not Indians, to boot to, maximum folk were born and raised right here and had no longer something to do with the tragedies that got here about countless hundred years in the past. What would the Indians do with each and every of the land in the adventure that they were given it decrease back? i'm no longer declaring that you do not have a valid element in that what got here about became incorrect, yet everyone in the time of those circumstances has died. If there became a available answer to the actual incontrovertible actuality that there will be tens of millions with out homes then i'd believe you. i wager i'm declaring that the answer you provide isn't functional.

and it was wrong but since this would cause great problems for many I suggest that instead of all whites leaving that there be a tax assessed for every dollar made over the average Native's yearly income, that should be put in a fund administered by Native Americans to solve this problem in a way beneficial to all. So nobody gets to live on more than say 30000 a years until the problem has been solved equitably, whites could have say a veto power, and merchants get no say in the matter because it was them who fooled everyone into thinking the original idea was OK

I hear what you are saying. That is why I can't stand the ending of the movie "Dances with Wolves". It was very sad indeed, what was done to the Indians. However, its too late, we are here now and that will not change. By the way, why just Christians? Not every white man is a Christian.

while i disagree with how the indians were treated and disposed of.and pushed out of thier lands, i also believe that is we, white christians, could have made apropiate steps to coincide with indians peacfuly. but that is the past. this is now. most of the people here in america were born here and because of that we've just as much right to be here as the indians. now is not the time to bicker at each other, we should be getting along by now not at each others throats.

White christians stole the land from people all over the world. It's history that you have to accept.

Because it isn't only white CHRISTIANS that live here. You would have to get rid of blacks, whites, hispanics, asians, arabs, etc. What they did to the native Americans (which I have in my blood) was wrong but you can't blame the white people living today. Native Americans weren't given much but they do have the right to have casino's on their reservation in Alabama where I live and it is illegal for anyone else. I need to go down there sometime I guess.

Dear friend, I am a Native American Indian(a member of the Chickasaw tribe) and I am a Christian and I have white ancestors (of them are German, English, Scottish and French) so should I leave or stay?
