"You can quote indian people all day long, it doesn't mean people will get it. Their God is green, they worship what will be of the least use to them when it all comes right down to it.
Chief Seattle is often quoted, his words are used often when it suits the need but the words he spoke are not even entertained let alone followed. The earth is on it's last legs, it would do us all well to pay attention.
The Cree have a saying,
"Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize that we cannot eat money."
Who is the savage?"

ReplyDeleteLiving in cave; making fire from buffalo shit; eating dog; all without inventing the wheel.
Well, no white man no slaves no crime, no crack, no jails, hmmm I agree Paradise...
ReplyDeleteIndians have no word for ownership of land, they only used what they needed. Can you say same?
They had no word called "BLING" so I guess you would rag them about who they were, but I ask you are you liberal who believes this country will work with everyones opinion being right?
We are at the end of our Democracy, the country no longer cares about its brother, father son, daughter.
So, I'll take paradise over this.
Living in a cave = Geothermal Homes
ReplyDeleteMaking fire from Buffalo Shit = Renewable energy
No wheels = No foreign oil/gas required.
And you were thinking, what?
We need to take more knowledge from the indians and leave less ignorance. They knew how to preserve and some of us only seem to know how to destroy, profit and move on. Shallow, greedy, ignorant people will be the downfall of our great nation.
