With respect Al,I ask you to hold the spam for me if thats possible?I may be needing it.
Hate to burst this guys bubble,but i don't use cyber tags my name IS Zoi Lightfoot,but then maybe he could impress us all by clairvoyently producing my Family/maiden name?
The fact remains for Mr Paul Moore,NOT ONCE has he given a name that can be checked with the current Abenaki Chief in the Vermont area,(where he states his family moved after "troubles"in Canada)Of the correct standing we all recognise who could bestow on him the title of Shaman.Given the fact according to his previous out pourings,he grew up there,he and his family would be known to the current Chief.
Instead we have had Mohawk and Cherokee names thrown at us as if we do not know no sovereign nation or state recognized nation will tolorate the instillment of an elder to thier nation by another nation.(its called colonializmn)
Mr Moore is also a tarot reader,so it is not suprising that his two latest references also dabble with this NON INDIAN,nuage nonsense.at the mind body and spirit festivals,funded by the Trinity Mirror group of publishers(the bain of every legitimate ex pat,given the racist,stereotypical content of reporting in these group of papers)
Mr Moore is not listening that much is obvious,99% of the vast community overseas,know or know of eachother directly,not one of them KNOWN to us can confirm Mr Moore is a member of the Indian Nations,let alone Abenaki.
I will however make this statement to Mr Paul Moore,"IF" you were the spiritual traditional,you wish your europeon fan base to believe you to be,then you would not be speaking in such "familiar tones"to any indian woman (or woman full stop)Most certainly not a married one.Tradition is not something you pick up and throw away when the mood takes you,nor is it something you bend and manipulate to suit your needs (bank balance) Your attitude and understanding of where the Indain Nations are today inclusive of thier diverse spiritual stands,are about 20years out of date.so lets try another thing shall we WHICH Abenaki community in Canada did your family allegedly return to from Vermont,what was the Chiefs name there?Provided of course you can apologize to this forum for your threats and half hearted knowledge of UK and US law as Educated Indian asked you to.
