00:00:00.000 One thing I think that's very important about our lore, and as I understand it, most indigenous lore, it's not about science. It's about explaining to a people where they came from.
00:00:18.000 and so the big cosmic pieces are about us where did we come from how did we come about how is our
00:00:31.680 world our soul shaped so yes every different group of people is going to have a different
00:00:41.080 expression of the shaping of the universe or the shaping of earth or some of these distant things
00:00:49.800 that occur well before the existence of the people that they are talking to. But the point of the
00:00:57.620 lore is never to make that make sense or be scientifically accurate. That's not the purpose.
00:01:05.300 the purpose is to describe the shaping of the world that these folk have found themselves in
00:01:12.260 and the relationship between their gods and their folk much the same with ours
00:01:18.920 it's not to say that there are not scientific truths present in it but when we deal in a time
00:01:27.100 that pre-exists humanity, the point is to explain to us how our folk and our worldview
00:01:36.480 and our understanding and orientation in existence came about.
00:01:46.560 Talks about our gods and how they shaped things and the things that they ordered
00:01:51.820 and their primal elements that compose who they are.
00:01:57.100 And it talks about how they found what was before us and made us into who we are and shaped the souls of Aryan man and woman.
00:02:11.500 Yes, each indigenous faith has a different story about how those folks came about and about their gods.
00:02:20.560 it's not my place to say whether those faiths are legitimate for those people or not it's not my
00:02:35.720 yeah it's not my place to condemn them and say that they're not relevant
00:02:38.820 their relevancy is between those gods and those folk
00:02:45.620 Thank you.
