I feel the younger generation are paying more attention and demanding the truth of things. Maybe THAT will be our eventual salvation?

When I was I child, I thought all Indians lived in Oklahoma.  When we went there to visit Grandma we always stopped along the way at the Indian Trading Post, watched the Indian dances, saw the teepees and ate buffalo burgers.  Plus my Dad could talk Choctaw as they lived close to a reservation when he was a boy and he had friends there.

I have no answers dear friend. two weeks after those ships sailed into sydney harbour the indigenous people who had been there perhaps as long as 60 thousand years were all dead. Measles picked up in what is now indonesia came with those first ships and wiped a tribe out.

No one has ever agreed for long, I suppose it is the same with everything. A lion

does not eat grass. It is a shame that we learn many things much too late.

Good Afternoon

Pat, I never did understand what went on during the early years.  I know what I learned in school but I'm not sure they were teaching us the whole picture.  I've learned over the years that the written word is only as good as the person that wrote it.  There's been a lot left out and I've learned to question everything.  I think everyone has a right to worship the way they want but so many do not have that view.  I know the synagogues have had to add protection for all their people and buildings because it is not safe for them.  I think that is really sad.  I could go on and on but it won't change things.

Good morning

Excellent questions. It appears that not getting along has not been a thing throughout history. The problem is that people do not respect another's opinion, and it boils down to a fight when someone politely disagrees. As for the people who want to rule the worls, resulting in war, dictators are an animal all of their own.
