What's up everyone. We are doing a contest with T.I. and we are giving away $1200 a day for the next 10 days. Just wanted to give you all a heads up.

So I say we've been worshipping whatever 🤬 our conquerors have told us to worship.

So you mean to tell me that before Europe invaded native lands across the globe and forced Christianity down their most of their throats, brutally by the way, all native were savages with no concept of 🤬 or worship. I find that very hard to believe.

Speak on it.

    Most times, they had their own concept of what or who 🤬 or gods is or are. Study the crusades.

    Maybe the natives were savages...but to say they had no concept of a deity is another thing. Maybe, like the accusations of Europe, their perception of a deity has made them savages.

    Native people were just as in tune with spirituality and a "higher power" than the Christians were, if not more so.

    The Lie That Were Christian Slaves is a Case of Our History Being Erased. What I've Learned is Initially They Didn't want the Slaves to Know Anything About Christianity. The Slaves were Left to they Native Religion, Sometime After What is Referred to as The Great Awaking that all Changed & As Each Generation was Born a Part of Being American was Accepting Your Master's Religion til What Came 1st the Chicken or the Egg was a Mystery & Hence Here we are
