"Great"? "Savior"? hahahahha
Hardly. Nice try at being clever though. And you know something? you ARE right. I have much to learn. And I stand by my earlier remark. So do you. For example, your attitude, judging from what you've written here, isn't very nice. You don't seem to be very interested in making friends. In fact it seems as though you feel safer making enemies. Well if that's the case, you failed. I refuse to be your enemy. 
And yes...we ARE brothers and sisters...in the mind of the Creator. It's only human beings who thrive on seperation.
I shared a little bit of my past history with you here, and I don't appreciate you or anyone else throwing it back in my face, thanks. Grow a heart.
This is not a chat room. This is a working forum; we are trying to expose frauds and exploiters. I'm not here to make friends. I have a job to do and I'm doing it to the best of my ability. Yes, I've made enemies over the past few years; it comes with the territory, not something I actively seek out.
You think my attitude "isn't very nice" from what little I've written to you? You have the nerve to criticize my attitude after some of the arrogant drivel you've written?
Indian in a previous life. Your heart pounding whenever you're exposed to anything Indian. You participated in a sweat and now it's your life passion to expose frauds. You can tell a phony by their foul perfume-covered stench. And then you followed all that up with an endorsement of Mary Summer Rain as the real deal. All this in your intro post.
Then there were your comments in the Dances with Wolves thread.
I'm curious to know if anyone here has seen "Dreamkeeper", the movie about a grandfather and grandson who travel to an "all nations" powwow ceremony and what they thought about it. I've heard some Natives say that it was corny and overproduced.
As for the original poster, I don't think he did his research. Before I traveled to Navajo country I searched online out of a desire to assist anyone in need. I happened upon a website that was looking for outsiders to come to the land and help the elders (and families) out in any way possible. So after connecting with a family, I drove to their property and stayed with them temporarily doing work for them. They also performed ceremonies for me and we became friends and I keep in touch with them to this day. Never did I take anything for granted. I always did the listening, talked very little, and learned whatever I could. That's one thing I believe white people (I'm white) are weak with: being able to truly listen and look at things from another's perspective. To be honest, I ran into several white people on the Navajo/Hopi reservation, and except for 1 (who was a woman) they ALL had a negative vibe about them. I suspect that they've been greatly affected by the culture they come from.
I went to the reservation to be among Native people, yes. But I went to be of service, not to take. It just happens that being there changed me forever in a positive way. Being a "Native in a white man's body" (how corny, I know) is a horror in both the white world AND the Native world. However I would take feeling like an outsider in the Native world any day before having to spend the rest of eternity in the white culture's world. At least Native people might give you a chance. I still have much to learn, I know.
How many times can a person use the word "I" in one post. Talk about self-promotion. You searched and found a Dine family who needed your help, drove to their property, lived with them, worked for them, and they "performed ceremonies" for you. "Never did I take anything for granted." You always listened, spoke very little. Insert criticism of whites who aren't respectful. Yep, you were better than all the other whites on the rez. So, you really think you're "Native in a white man's body"? That's not corny; that's disrespectful!
"And yes...we ARE brothers and sisters...in the mind of the Creator." No, we are not all related. We care about each other, we support each other, but we are not brothers and sisters. Do we all look alike? Do we all have the same culture? Do we all have the same traditions? Do we all have the same spirituality? No we don't. If the Creator had wanted us to all be the same, he would have made it that way.
You shared a little bit about yourself and you don't appreciate us throwing it back in your face? What else would you have us do with it?
Grow a heart? You don't know me. You have no right to speak to me this way. Your white privilege is showing.
