Who is to say they are not?
Which also implies meaning, whatever you call it. The definition is listed above.
agreed, there is no such thing as a noble savage-so why use the phrase in reference to these people?
interesting you see me jumping up and down like a raving looney, It's not about that. Simply a matter of principle.
So I have.
Words have context and a history. Tybird was expressing an opinion.
You are making an ass of yourself.
My opinion.... and the will to show I will always be better than before.0 -

But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.0

settle down.
go read what "noble savage" means.
first, "savage" as implicated in the term "noble savage" is a reference to ANY peoples who do not have contact with "modern" life and contrivances.
Tybird is just refuting another poster who is insinuating that these people are "at one with the living world".
That reference directly envokes the notion of "the noble savage", which is a literary term.
His response about there being no such thing as a noble savage was an etymological reference to the term, not some racist remark.
settle the fuck down, and understand what you are talking about before you start insulting people and jumping up and down like a raving looney.
jesus, people.
like i said.
Read. RESEARCH. THEN respond.

The pictures are amazing, though. Hopefully they'll be left alone to keep doing what they're doing.
I would bet money that religious missionaries will be asking for directions to these tribes immediately. :rolleyes:Walking can be a real trip

Commy wrote:Why this has become more than my simple question , 'why do you think these people are savage?...' is beyond me.
To use the term noble savage, in reference to these people, holds a certain inference...savage was still the term used.All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.0 -

poor mexicans
I'm sorry but that is a bit much, don't you think?
and, although I am a Christian, I sincerely do not believe that someone who knows nothing of Jesus is held accountable for that. Nor do I believe that He does not say at the end of someone's life, "hey are you coming?". But I am a rare kind I suppose because I have told other Christians this thought and got my head cut off.
I know you were making a point, but don't you kind of think that was not respectful?Baby, You Wouldn't Last a Minute on The Creek......
