alright, jujusis...i need to formulate a post just for you because you have said so much that i want to address.

solomatic-the way i see it less than a century ago my people had their own religion. i mean my late grandmother used to tell us about life before the mzungu and a little oral history if we were lucky. After colonization those religious beliefs were abandoned and we adopted christianity, even if we didnt change much of our other culture. i understand that my great grandfather may have been a 'medicine man.' i just want to understand my heritage, which is part of my spiritual journey. i am one person who is very against tribalism and even though i ask jujusis about certain referrences to west african practices i understand that they are just the method, not the core issue. tribalism to me is just a tool used for political gain or oppression. please do not let these mashada people stua you.

there is no tribe which is more special than the other and wouldnt it be funny if we found out that god or ngai, allah, buddah etc, etc were the same thing?

i mean think about it-if no tribe or nation is special then there must be an equalizer somewhere...what do you think?
