Jeeminy Christmas...it shouldn't be this difficult. I do not understand why Steven Newcomb, whose brilliant work on "Doctrine of Discovery" I am otherwise familiar with, should be hemming and hawing with you about the issue of genetic memory, in your case, regarding Mongol invasion, basically attributing all of that to "image" and vague "thought." Really? One would think that the descendant of Lenape/Shawnee would already be able to articulate this, on a moment's notice. I don't get it. Why isn't he addressing this, straightforwardly, with you? WTF

I have experienced the effect of giving a truly heartfelt apology to someone whose ancestors had suffered at the hands of ancestors of mine, whether directly or as part of a wider group. It DOES make a difference. It absolutely does. I have seen this in action.

Pretending that genetic trauma doesn't exist is just stupid.

Pretending that genetic ANYTHING doesn't exist, as to the availability of direct memory of such, is just ridiculous. I have tested out the theory. I have FELT genetic memory. WTF
