ChristianityIndigenous people have discovered that Christianity is not inherently Western but universal - ’translatable’ into any cultural idiom.
Nancy Pearcey Quotes and wishes: «Indigenous peoples»
Cultural survivalCultural survival is not about preservation, sequestering indigenous peoples in enclaves like some sort of zoological specimens. Change itself does not destroy a culture. All societies are constantly evolving. Indeed a culture survives when it has enough confidence in its past and enough say in its future to maintain its spirit and essence through all the changes it will inevitably undergo.

Jay Griffiths Quotes and wishes: «Indigenous peoples»
The fundamental differenceSo many indigenous people have said to me that the fundamental difference between Western and indigenous ways of being is that even the most open-minded westerners generally view listening to the natural world as a metaphor, as opposed to the way the world really is. Trees and rocks and rivers really do have things to say to us.
Derrick Jensen Quotes and wishes: «Indigenous peoples»
The indigenous peoples of the great tourist spotsThe indigenous peoples of the great tourist spots seem to lose their souls. All cultural, religious, and political efforts and ideals are crippled since the culture is engaged only in luring ever more tourists. It is not the contact with an essentially foreign population that corrupts the inhabitants of the great foreign resorts. It is the contact with great masses of people who are seeking fir the moment only well-being and not salvation that weakens and devalues the indigenous population.
Adolf Guggenbuhl Craig Quotes and wishes: «Indigenous peoples»
The most basic differenceMany Indians have told me that the most basic difference between Western and indigenous ways of being is that Westerners view the world as dead, and not as filled with speaking, thinking, feeling subjects as worthy and valuable as themselves.

The place that they should have occupiedThe indigenous peoples never had, and still do not have, the place that they should have occupied in the progress and benefits of science and technology, although they represented an important basis for this development.
