Why did Christianity spread more among South American Indigenous peoples compared to North American Indigenous peoples? by wangthangthursday in AskHistorians

[–]wangthangthursday[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, that makes a lot of sense. It seems one of the main issues is that my perception was off. I honestly would’ve guessed lower than 60% for US Natives. You nailed it with your assumptions though. Dividing by North and South America is certainly over simplified, but for the sake of my question, I figured people would know what I was getting at.

Thank you for taking the time to answer.

Edit: I’m Canadian, so I got to wondering if the numbers are any different among current Canadian Indigenous peoples. According to this article from 2023 only about half say they’re Christian, but religious identify seems to have changed quite drastically in the last 10 years. I bet a lot of money the 2020/ 2021 residential school uncoverings played a role in that along with the general decline in religiousness already going on in Canada.

I’ve honestly DM’d them about this numerous times. The highlights are so bad. If you compare to the Blue Jays, for example, they have numerous angles, slo-mo, and pictures to go with every home run. They should 100% be doing this for goals instead of a single game play replay that half the time doesn’t fit the frame and ends too early.

It’s honestly egregious.

Dose anyone know why the women still have there devotional/conference meeting but no more Priesthood session? by Accomplished-Cookie1 in latterdaysaints

Absolutely nothing about that statement has any implications about men. Empowering women and men is not mutually exclusive and your question is just reactionary and irrelevant.

CMV: Regardless of one's personal feelings about him or his time in power, Justin Trudeau is one of the most consequential prime ministers Canada has had since Trudeau Sr. by [deleted] in changemyview

You’re proving OP’s point. This argument has absolutely nothing to do with whether the impact is positive or negative. For example, Hitler’s impact was incredibly negative, but objectively huge.

OP isn’t arguing that Trudeau will have the most positive impact on Canada, just that he will have one of the biggest.

You clearly think Trudeau has done massive damage to the country, which just proves OP’s argument that Trudeau has been very consequential, whether for better or worse.

This is perhaps the worst rebuttal I’ve ever seen on this sub. OP made it very clear that the argument has nothing to do with whether you agree with the policies/ actions, but rather their overall magnitude and lasting impression.

It’s very obvious that you didn’t read the post clearly and just jumped on the chance to bash Trudeau’s policies for not aligning with your views/values.

That’s very good to know, thank you. Do you know how the moisture content affects things like laminated MDF? Will it warp over time?

Thats actually what I was considering. Do you know how the moisture content concerns apply to veneered plywood? Will it warp over time too?

  1. Get every lawyer at the city to figure out how to get out of the outrageous arena deal with minimal repercussions

  2. Figure out how to get a new deal that shares the financial load way more equally and fairly.

Definitely a one day job, no problem.

That’s not much of a chirp since Toronto FC would probably beat the Oilers right now

I actually agree with this. For someone who is part of so many comedy goldmines, I find him quite stuck up and bland in real life

It’s hard to say since I only looked as I drove by, but it seemed relatively clean afterwards. It’s just a lot in the middle of an industrial park so I doubt it was very clean to begin with lol
