Please, please, please, could you do a thread on the Hopi beliefs.
I studied the Hopi many years ago but I had the feeling that the interpretations were not up to a standard.
What symbolism would you use to describe the Hopi?
Great thread>

Generally speaking, most languages are inadequate to explaining topics first described in another unless we're talking about languages that are closely related to one another (i.e. Romance languages spawned from the same family tree).
Language being symbolic as it is, people tend to create the words to go with concepts in their own heads. For example, the native people up in the Arctic actually need multiple words for the varying kinds and degrees of snow because those are very real and relevant topics and concepts in their heads that need expression in succinct ways - one word. For the rest of us, we can afford to take the time needed to create entire essays over it because we don't live it, or we simply adopt their word for it.
Describe the Hopi...
The Mayans (their Sisters) were the masters of Time.
The Hopi are still the masters of Space.

Like I said, different people view the world in different ways and those are the mental images their words convey. Generally speaking, it doesn't work out well.
It's not an aspersion on anything; it's simply an acknowledgement of reality and why it is that way.

That's a bluff.
The only thing keeping Iran out of Israel is the USA. The only thing keeping Israel from nuking Iran is Russia. The only thing keeping the USA and Russia form getting involved is each other.
MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) works to a point... SAD (Self-Assured Destruction) not so much. Iran wants Israel destroyed; they do not want to take over Israel. If they didn't know that was a bluff, they would have invaded Israel with a small expendable group long ago and let Israel do their dirty work.

It's really weird when the motto is deny ignorance and concepts like GOD are the very delusional thought forms that give rise to such a phenomenon known simply as ignorance.
Deifying someone is all "fame" does if they could crawl out of the hell they accepted in exchange? They'd say don't allow oneself to be deified.
Showing someone simple respect when it is due to them is a nice courteous thing... most of the deities that society has made aren't worth an honorable mention in an after life so why bother with them in the current life?
Horses it's shame what man's slavery of them has done they don't even look like they are supposed to as the original if it were to go back to its source it's family wouldn't even recognise it they would be like what the hell happened to you and if they could grasp the concept all it could say would be humans like a mantra of repetition it could not shake until it died of old age it's even worse that people want to enfame it with their delusions making it into some sort of archon or archetype as people call it in the non freudian "psychology."
I do know all those under the delusion that some "god" has given them domain above all the animals is inverted thinking... it's been an excuse you know it's one thing to thin herds it's another to destroy and use another life form the "just because we can" business. Excuse after excuse is just a roll of pardons after an incalculable amount of time that's all that gets seen asking for a pardon claiming ignorance...
Covid hey it's a life and it is in response to how life has been treated what's worse? The disease that people won't put down like someone with tourettes whatever it is will be brought up over and over again and used as a weapon hoping to wear someone down hoping to conquer them... those people are not pittible... those people are exactly what things like covid crawl out of the ground fall out of the sky and jump out of toilets to get.
