So did the missionaries ruin the authentic religious gospel at the same time as they switched over the community individuals to the Pauline sacrifice gospel? honestly no longer. because, Jesus Christ chosen Paul to be the Apostle to the Gentiles; and Paul rested all his theology on the incontrovertible actuality that he had considered the risen Christ who become, as He claimed to be, the Messiah of the Jewish promise and want. Paul new and taught that Jesus Christ got here to this international ''contained in the flesh'' to be the ''Propitiation'' [atonement] for our sins, and not in any respect for ours in user-friendly words yet also for the sins of the international [ a million John 2:2; 4:10; Romans 3:25 ]

"We know our lands have now become more valuable. The white people think we do not know their value; but we know that the land is everlasting, and the few goods we receive for it are soon worn out and gone."

"When all the trees have been cut down,
when all the animals have been hunted,
when all the waters are polluted,
when all the air is unsafe to breathe,
only then will you discover you cannot eat money."

"The white people, who are trying to make us over into their image, they want us to be what they call "assimilated," bringing the Indians into the mainstream and destroying our own way of life and our own cultural patterns. They believe we should be contented like those whose concept of happiness is materialistic and greedy, which is very different from our way. We want freedom from the white man rather than to be integrated. We don't want any part of the establishment, we want to be free to raise our children in our religion, in our ways, to be able to hunt and fish and live in peace. We don't want power, we don't want to be congressmen, or bankers....we want to be ourselves. We want to have our heritage, because we are the owners of this land and because we belong here. The white man says, there is freedom and justice for all. We have had "freedom and justice," and that is why we have been almost exterminated. We shall not forget this."

Answer 7

Indians

Answer 8

My absolute first thought is one of Guilt! The on-going neglect of Native Americans horrifies me. I am of Irish-Scotch-English heritage. My family did not participate in the fiasco that left them in the current predicament. However, my sense of honor and integrity is offended at the situation. I don't have an answer to help them. I wish I did.
