"Some people don't have the gumption to state what is in their na'au openly, without worry of being chastised."
I'm glad you posted that Opihikao because I was struggling with what you shared with us in your previous post about what the mountain was used for.
What I'm struggling with is how to share my thoughts on what you posted without ripping older Hawaiian culture a new Puka for being so damned psychologically abusive to its children, in effect crippling them for life both emotionally and intellectually. Yes that system was created and its lore formed to subjugate a people. I certainly hope such crippling story telling isn't shared with the youngsters today and folks wait until a more appropriate age or emotional development has been reached before unleashing such lore upon them.
Sorry but that's what was stirred within me about all that.
