so hypocritical
people that go to church (not gonna discuss other religions) in general but lets talk focus on the hmongs
1.morals are taught by the parents, if their parents didnt have morals most likely none of their offsprings will either
2.salvation/enlightment is up to the person, god/jesus doesnt personally come down from above to heal you or what not, you the person just believe it so much that you feel healed (this is totally different from miracles)
3.fear is their too for church go-ers, they make you feel so paranoid about sinning that you try your best not to do anything wrong or you wont be accepted and make it thru the gates
what gets to me the most is "jesus/god will always forgive you"
thats the same as tellin someone who just commited murder, serve your time, get released, and be forgiven
while someone else is missing a loved one that was taken away
why do they pray for before they eat? i know for a fact that my a$$ has to go work for it, clean/cook it, then i can eat it, it was given to me!!
tho we shamanists may not physically see the other side we can still see the shaman doin his majic and still have a since of something is being done whether if it works or not
our shamans arent gods they are like lawyers, they enter the other realm and negotiate for us, it also has been with our hmong people since day one
church was never known until the white man came to the villages and preached about it
tho we may not see the spirits on the other side at least we dont kneel down and pray to someone that we definitely know doesnt look like us, we kneel down to the shaman in respect for him helping or trying to help us
i dont understand how every church go-er from all nations praise this god so much?? from what i understand ( i dont follow this religion but only know/remember from things taught in school) he was a jew so how does the latins have their own saints, blacks praise to a white guy, and hmongs just follow everyone else?
