https://www.record-eagle.com/news/local ... fa694.htmlIn the 106-page report released by the Department of Interior in April, 408 boarding schools across 37 states or territories, including five in the state of Michigan between the years 1819 and 1969 were investigated. The report states that physical and sexual abuse was rampant at the institutions, with students beaten for speaking their native languages. That legacy of that abuse and isolation from family has been cited by Indigenous leaders as a root cause of the epidemic rates of alcohol and drug addiction now in Native American communities.
Indigenous leaders also called attention to Christian doctrines and documents that shaped these policies that have never been rescinded.
Pope Nicholas V’s Bull established the principle of the right of conquest, which later on led to the infamous Inter Caetera Papal Bull issued by Pope Alexander VI on May 4, 1493.
It declared that any land not inhabited by Christians was available to be discovered, claimed, and exploited by Christian rulers and declared that “the Catholic faith and the Christian religion be exalted and be everywhere increased and spread, that the health of souls be cared for and that barbarous nations be overthrown and brought to the faith itself.”

This is an example of how religion is failing in the days of demigods and political dogma...

Re: Christians falling short...
They should be rescinded now for being obsolete if they haven’t already. But they were a normal product of their time. Every group on earth thought they were the big man on campus and had a divine right or relationship with whatever they had or could get. Boilerplate stuff.TC Talks wrote: ↑Sun Jul 31, 2022 10:18 amThis is an example of how religion is failing in the days of demigods and political dogma...https://www.record-eagle.com/news/local ... fa694.htmlIn the 106-page report released by the Department of Interior in April, 408 boarding schools across 37 states or territories, including five in the state of Michigan between the years 1819 and 1969 were investigated.

Re: Christians falling short...
Christianity needs to get back to its roots. “Render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s.” Today’s Republican Party would shun Christ if he walked in person. He believed in free medical care and the free distribution of food.
They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

Our board faith leaders must agree. No word from them.

In other breaking news, black people were slaves to white people in the early to mid 1800s.

I am in the 68th percentile for Neanderthal DNA.
It's not a coincidence my people went extinct when humans showed up. That was 38000 years before Christianity when you took us down.

Re: Christians falling short...
68th percentile? If they weren’t humans were they people? Maybe you should ask for reparations from all of humanity?craig11152 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 01, 2022 5:07 pmI am in the 68th percentile for Neanderthal DNA.

Wait until TCT learns who ended slavery...

Foma- small untruths to comfort simple souls
From a young age, I figured out religion was one of the cruelest jokes played on mankind.
