POPSReligion We all know of good and evil, the Indigenous Peoples believe in a Creator who placed us here to look after our mother the earth, so why is it that the others use religion for self gain or for destruction of other who do not believe in God, as they do? Puzzling? Not really, the Indigenous People believe we are here not for our selves, but for our children and their children, to care for Mother Earth, to live in harmony with all things and all peoples, we are still wondering what the others were put here for?

POPSThink I grow increasingly worried about man and his thoughts! When reading or watching the world as it is today, we can see what man has on his mind and unfortunately it is not the good, but the evil in mans mind that is winning. We see the continual search for the better weapons in which to kill each other, the growing hunger and killing of our children, the continuing raping of Mother Earth, with no respite in the future. We must look to our Grandfathers for guidance, however for the People of the Earth and I speak of the Indigenous Peoples who at one time lived and breathed the life of Mother Earth, it will be easier, not so for the others who live for greed with every waking breath. The destruction of man will come from within, so pray to the Great Spirit that the others will come to respect and seek the guidance of our Earth Mother and that of the People of the Earth, before it is to late.

POPSSacred Way Only through unity will we achieve and regain our way. We must pray to the Creator to guide us on the sacred path, where we once stood united as the Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island. We as the true peoples of Turtle Island are all powerful when united as one. Cougar

POPSTested At this time in my life all I can do is write. It is my way of fighting for the equality, truth, Justice and Rights of my Aboriginal Brothers and sisters. It takes alot of research, time and patients with very little return, but with every response I feel a realization of recognition for my words and that maybe, just maybe, I have gotten through to someone.

POPSEarth Spirit Look around you, can you not see it? The Earth Spirit is speaking to all of mankind, warning us not to continue to rape the earth. Since the beginning of mankind, he has sought to make life easier for him to live a lazy life. The Aboriginal have been forced to live this way also, but many have cried and now wish to return to the ways before the colonists came. They have raped and pillaged to the point where the return is almost pointless, but we must strive for unity, if we are to prevail in our efforts to return the earth to what it was. We may be to slow, as the Earth Spirit, speaks to us on an almost daily bases now, telling us if we don not stop, she will stop us her self, and heal what we have destroyed. Cougar

POPSPhillip Deere, Muskogee-Creek "Life, the circle, a measurement with no beginning and no end." We need to get back to nature to truly understand what Phillip Deere has said, respecting everything including the very rocks beneath your feet. A Native can understand this, but a white man never will until they learn to respect one another, for if they cannot respect one another, how do we expect them to respect the earth? Cougar
