Contrary to popular belief, the Bible does not necessarily require us to think of the earth as 6,000 years old. https://t.co/TrL8az6MeH

Canadian Indigenous leader says he was 'filled with rage' before 'intense' conversation with Trump

A Canadian Indigenous leader who greeted world heads of state arriving for the Group of Seven summit says he was “filled with rage” and considered leaving before Donald Trump arrived — saying the U.S. president has “caused much pain and suffering in the world.” .......... Instead, Steven Crowchild prayed, consulted with his peoples' leaders and ultimately opted to stay on the tarmac for a long conversation with Trump that he hopes will call more attention to promoting peace, protecting clean water and other issues key to Canada's First Nation peoples. .......... Crowchild said he spoke in his people's traditional language, wore feathered headgear that made him feel strong and showed Trump treaty medals that he told the president were older than Canada itself. Trump wore a white “Make America Great Again” cap and appeared to be listening at length — though both sides declined to comment on exactly what was said. ........ Aware that “no Indigenous representation was there at the time,” Crowchild said he “prayed to my creator” and “really thought of those suffering around the world” in choosing to speak to Trump. .......... Crowchild said that, in addition to Trump, he greeted other arriving world leaders and "tried to remind each one of them to try to be a good leader and protect our water for future generations.” ........... “I spoke for my elders," Crowchild said, noting that he spoke of promoting peace and “protecting water for future generations" and tried to “say as much as I could, as wisely as I could, while representing with honor and dignity. Whether he listened or not, time will tell.” .......... He said that, ultimately, the U.S. president is “just another person." ....... “Some would say he’s a horrible person, and we all know many reasons," Crowchild said. "I stood taller than him as proud Tsuut’ina Isgiya.”
