I haven't been anywhere but thanks anywayHi roomy. I've missed you.
There were man notable honourable and noble Indians during the period in question but a distinct lack of likewise white men.
Yep. You realize that this country was founded on genocide? The Europeans wanted the land all for themselves, and, because the Native Americans looked different, the Europeans figured they were somehow more "superior" to them.
quote me.
I look forward to taking a gander at your evidence..

This is precisely why Sky refuses to sing our national anthem.
Well, nothing says that she has to.
NO, but if she can't support this country, I wonder why she remains.
From my understanding, some tribes burned sections of forest, just to drive out the wild animals (which they would shoot and eat).
So there goes the idea of noble savage that coexists with nature.
I would say that indians building casinos pretty much destroys any concept of noble savage right there. especially when so many of them take that privilege and waste it on beer and drugs......
Every season the Yosemite tribe would burn the meadows which would, in turn, kill off the small undergrowth of the encroaching pine forest as well as promote the growth of the Black Oak which provided the essential acorns. Regular burning of the valley floor would eliminate dense undergrowth which would reveal potential enemies and help to lessen to danger of a forest fire. Only recently have modern fire suppression tactics reverted to this method of periodic burning of the underbrush in order to reduce the impact of a natural—or man-made—fire.

Well, nothing says that she has to. Hell......I won't even tell her that she's gotta sing, I will however request that she stand and acknowledge the flag. Singing ain't required.
And........if you think about it........
You wanting Sky to do what you want her to do goes against God. Did you know that?
It's called "free will", which means that you can choose to follow it or not.
And.....before you start going all Biblical on me and tell me about the 10 Commandments being commandments, I'll tell ya you're wrong.
Free will again. God tells us what He would prefer us to do, which is why He wrote the Torah for us, which later grew into the Bible.
If you're looking for places where God makes it a commandment? Look at the story of Jonah. If God tells you personally, not via the Bible, you better do it.
Otherwise, it's just pretty much a suggestion.
So no.....there is absolutely no requirement for Sky to sing.
NO, but if she can't support this country, I wonder why she remains.
