What is your opinion of this..?

Question

Native American culture and religious traditions are very strong with my wife's' family, her father is even a medicine man, yet they are all born again Christian, and respect these cultures and traditions.

Answer 1

But the native American religion is satanic.  They shouldn't have anything to do with it any more.  Are you sure they are really born again?  If so, they are weak Christians to still be into that religion too.  I know the native religion has a strong pull and all satanic religions do and the people in them try to force this on them too.

So, this means you have to be that much stronger to resist the devil, is that right?  I know this must be hard.

Answer 2

What's so surprising about human beings believing nonsense?  It doesn't matter one bit what their heritage or ethnicity is.  Gullibility and delusion knows no boundaries.

Answer 3

There is nothing wrong with it just as long as they know why they are born again Christians. The native american culture should not die, there has to always be someone that has recollections passed down  of how it was: the good and bad stuff.

Answer 4

This impresses me as strange, but whatever floats your boat....

Answer 5

Plenty of Native Americans are christian.  Some are christians because their children were indoctrinated into Christianity.  Yet to say that they only were forced to do so, is always claiming that Native Americans are weak minded and didn't do it by choice.  No amount of indoctrination can make anyone forgo their faith.  

Native Americans were also introduced to christianity by the observation of the work that they did.  People sometimes convert because of example.  They probably were helped by christians or catholics in times of need.  Still it is hard for people to give up tradition, so they incorporate their tradition into their new founded one.  That is how cultures grow and adapt.  Even in the Bible each tribe or group had their own task and lived according to each tribes tradition.

Answer 6

That's great :)

Answer 7

My opinion: okay...

Answer 8

Let nothing get between you and the Lord, I'm sure you understand this already.

Answer 9

It's not my thing, but we're free.

Answer 10

That is OK.  There are many god's but only one God.

Answer 11

I am interested in Ancient Egypt. The gods, rituals, temples, mummies, hieroglyphics, pyramids etc.

But that doesn't mean that I worsip there gods, or anything like that. It is one of my desires that God has given me. I only worship Jesus, and there are some things I love about this world to.

God Bless.  

Answer 12

To each their own.

Answer 13

If one has love for God, won''t matter what religion/culture/traditions one is born in or follows, ultimately there is one GOD. Tolerance, understanding and love for all religions and people comes naturally....

Answer 14

Oh no, someone is incorporating the values of two belief systems into their lives!

It'll all end in tears, I tell you.

Answer 15

Good for you?

Answer 16

That is so sad.  Clearly a case of childhood brainwashing.  

It is nice that they haven't given up their native beliefs on top of it.  Just another example of christians destroying another culture.
