    Thank you for clearly enunciating their names and making it seamless in your storytelling cadence. Often people don't practise saying the names of people they talk about and botch the enunciation but even if you mispronounce it, you make a strong and confident attempt to say their names correctly and I think that is so important and speaks to your calibre. Sometimes people will even say the wrong name of the person whilst the name is on the screen (common names too!) and I find that so disrespectful. Being a good researcher means going out of your way to get the details correct. Their names are the details. So thank you once again for providing top notch service in bringing these stories. I trust you are accurate because you pay attention to the meticulous details. I see you.

      Honestly, it means a lot to see people put the effort in. It tells me they care about the topic they are covering, instead of spending zero time on making sure they get names and words - especially aboriginal names and words, correct.
      As someone who has only had their last name pronounced correctly 7 times in 30 some odd years, it doesn’t bother me personally, but it does bother me when it’s Aboriginal, or if someone is making monetized content.

If not for the belief of Christianity, these sick men would have just claimed they were possessed by evil spirits and that's what made them do it. We know better though, don't we.

      It's just one of far too many tragic examples of the harm that is likely to be caused by irresponsible missionaries introducing their foreign superstitions, especially in such a half-assed manner as it was obviously foisted upon the people of the Belcher Islands.

    • @davelordy
      @davelordy Рік тому +2

      @@0okamino Sure, but I don't think the issue is whether the religion is foreign (to them) or not, it's just religious thinking in general, I mean they were seemingly primed by their own stupid beliefs accept other people's stupid beliefs so readily, it doesn't much matter whether these superstitions come from within or from other people . . . I mean if Hindus in India are practising barbaric things like "Sati" (the practice of burning a widow to ashes during her late husband's funeral), and Christians turn up and cajole them into some other idiotic practice . . . then I don't much care where or who these things come from, it's just the generalised issue of religious / magical / superstitious thinking, it's poisonous wherever it comes from.

    I've canoed almost the entire length of The Great Whale River just about 200 miles I believe back in the 90's. It took about 28 days and we didn't see a single other person or sign of recent humans the entire time. No re-pros for supplies. Wild and rugged country.
