I See Church People, Walking....

Out here in Indian Country, we tend to 'see' more spirits. We talk about spirits, good and bad and neutral. Churches don't seem to share the same percerptions, so when indians intersect with the church, it gets pretty exciting (all those white people jumping up and down...) Some try to explain away the spirit world, or call it black or white. But for us it is not so cut and dried. I wish it were as easy as the church tries to make it out to be. But that's not our reality.

There are often explanations for "poltergeists" (german for 'noisy ghosts'). But there are also very dark displays of the spirit world intersecting with our visible world. I could get some friends to share some pretty hairy stories about skinwalkers and such, but I am afraid of sensationalism. There is real, tangible stuff that happens from the spirit world -- don't ever doubt that. There is also unecessary fear.

Then there is that certain portion of the "church without a brain" that cluelessly tries to reason with demons during 'deliverance' sessions, pumping the spirits for information. I am so afraid for a church that interviews demons but never hears from angels. I wonder why that is....
