I think that this topic will reveal much about Hawaiian Christians
and further the knowledge of all who live here on this beautiful,
but imo oppressed island.
No doubt some sparks will fly and yet you need a spark for a fire to start , or at least tremendous heat for a fire to start, but once it does it spreads light to all who surround it. So bring in the light lest we stumble in the darkness.
The video's have wonderful music that I am sure all will enjoy,and some quite interesting history is revealed herein.

Sparks? Be careful with all of the dry straw spread around the nativity scene...

Just goes to show that any fool with access to a computer can post anything they want on the internet for free. The most believable lies generally have some embedded half-truths to keep believers believing.
Just because you see it on the internet doesn't mean that it's true.

Could you be specific in your post ie what you consider in this post as a "believable lie", and what is an example of a 1/2 truth?

Hawaii consists of a little over 34 % of population that think of themselves as Christians, and I am sure their are a few more on this forum and it would be nice to hear a peep or 2 from you
For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.

Not willing to re-watch video but historical facts off and some timelines out of order. General tone was that people saw the light and flocked toward a different religion but reality was that the invaders brought disease that killed off 70-90% of the native people.
As they saw their friends and family dying off from disease they were searching for answers and the people who brought the disease were not dying off. They followed the missionaries out of fear and a lack of scientific understanding.
As far as personal beliefs go, I respect all peoples desire to believe in whatever they wish, yes even flying saucers from you tube videos, as long as they keep it to themselves and willing followers. But I do not like being preached at by people who want to convert others to their particular flavor of faith. How would you feel if someone tried to routinely convert you and your neighbors to Islam? It's really the same as trying to force christianity (and flying saucers) on other people.
