Quote by Mary Annette Pember

“The missionaries were unable to grasp the nuanced Indigenous relationship with the divine since it was so unlike the structured, institutional nature of Christianity. Native spirituality, embedded in everyday life, didn’t represent an authentic religion to the Jesuits. The missionaries and other Christians dismissed the tribes’ spiritual ways as meritless or, worse, as products of the devil.”

Under the halo of magnetising advocacy, they played their Machiavellian games of manipulations, their video smear campaigns, and global financial, well calculated opportunism in the legal limits but not within the moral limits.” ~ Angelica Hopes, Calunniatopia Book 1 Stronzata Trilogy”
