I talked to Mother Earth and she is pissed
She never heard about people eating animals. The animals that look at us with trust and hope. Some get eaten. Some get away.

She knows she has been raped for the past hundred years. She has been raped.

Where do we go next?

Again. Any ideas?

Where do we go next?

2. When one is headed
off the cliff's edge a step backward is a step in the right direction.

4. "An Indian Prayer"
"An Indian Prayer"

My Grandfather is the Fire

My Grandmother is the Wind

The Earth is my Mother

The Great Spirit is my Father

The World stopped at my birth and laid itself at my feet

And I shall swallow the Earth whole when I die,
and the Earth and I will be one.

Hail The Great Spirit, my Father, without him no one
could exist because there would be no will to live.

Hail The Earth, my Mother, without which no food
could be grown and so cause the will to live to starve.
Hail the wind, my Grandmother, for she brings loving,
life-giving rain nourishing us as she nourishes our crops.
Hail the fire, my Grandfather, for the light, the warmth,
the comfort he brings without which we be animals, not men.

Hail my parent and grandparents without which,
not I, nor you, nor anyone else could have existed.

Life gives life which gives unto itself a promise of new life.

Hail the Great Spirit, The Earth, the Wind, the Fire
praise my parents loudly for they are your parents, too.

Oh, Great Spirit, giver of my life please accept this
humble offering of prayer, this offering of praise,
this honest reverence of my love for you.

7. I was thinking about this today
and it dawned on me that the best argument against the "Intelligent Design" theory is our current course. Once we effectively destroy the world, the fundies will have to see this as a clear design for failure and finally we can end this stupid evolution debate!

It's just sad that the end of the world has to come but I'll be damned if thats not proof! ha!
