Is this guy a racist against Native Americans? Don't you hate it when people falsely call...

They were here first, we tried to absorb them...But they still have their traditions and pride...

I don't see it as racist. A lot of people I know tend to equate all spiritual practices and culture as religions.
I see it as naive but not racist.

I think it's important not to throw that word around too loosely because it might lessen the impact of where it's really needed. We already live in a world where real racism is being dismissed as 'woke'.

I am the only white guy in Murka that is not part cherokee. White people destroyed Native Americans, it was genocide, and makes me sick, but thousands of things make me sick about humans. Oh! Doom talk! I Sorry. All is beautiful love all of you. Tea? Crumpets?

As per Google, Religion is a collection of cultural systems, belief systems, and worldviews that relate humanity to spirituality and, sometimes, to moral values.

Everyone has their own perspective about stuff like this, I don't think its racist.

Probably not a racist per se. Most people who come from a Protestant background including people who left and call themselves atheists now cannot wrap their brains around spirituality existing outside the Protestant framework.

As a heathen I watch the brains of both practicing protestants and atheists (who might not go to church anymore but their framework for spirituality is identical) melt as you try and explain a different concept of spiritual practice. It just doesn't compute.

Nah. Spirituality is just a fancy way of saying religion.

You're asking if he's racist because you disagree with his definition of religion. I really don't know what to do with that question

Doesn’t necessarily mean the person’s [b]racist[/b]; they might just have a different point of reference between how they define spirituality vs. religious beliefs. If someone doesn’t know something about my culture, I’d rather they ask.

Over there everyone is intolerant of one thing or another. The daily posts seem to suggest so…

Religion is a pretty broad, imprecise term.
