this is a good one - the conquistadores came with the christianism in the caribean islands . They were looking for new lands and certainly Gold - actually they forced the Taino to become christian and this is why in everyone who feels to have a taino past there is a big turmoil for that particular subject - But we have to remember that real taino were not christian as muslism are not christian and so on - Remember what Hatuey said when he was about to be burned Live by Christians Conquistadores…

No Samuel what you are referring to is Passover, a Jewish holiday when God spared his chosen people one of the plagues, killing the first born of Isreal, by "passing over" the homes that had blood from a sacrificial lamb on their door. Easter celebrates the day Jesus rose from the grave into eternal life. It is celebrated on the third day, the Sunday after Good Friday, the day Jesus was crucified.

To directly answer the question Brooke asked. Yes, Taino Christian cannot exist if you follow the spiritual beliefs of the Taino culture. In Christianity, there is only one GOD and if you are to accept him into your life, you are dismissing any other God or idol. I am a baptized protestant but a practicing catholic. My son is catholic. but I also have great apreciation for other religions and I won't sit here and pretend I haven't questioned religion at some point or another in my life. I have…
To directly answer the question Brooke asked. Yes, Taino Christian cannot exist if you follow the spiritual beliefs of the Taino culture. In Christianity, there is only one GOD and if you are to accept him into your life, you are dismissing any other God or idol. I am a baptized protestant but a practicing catholic. My son is catholic. but I also have great apreciation for other religions and I won't sit here and pretend I haven't questioned religion at some point or another in my life. I have very recently struggled with whether I want to leave the Catholic faith-remaining Christian-to an episcopalian faith because I feel like some of the "rules" are ridiculous and yes, man made just like Al said. I wanted to be baptized into the Roman Catholic church, but since my husband is a Roman Catholic and never should have married me in city hall, we had to marry in the church before I was baptized, which gave us about 6 months. My husband didn't want to rush it especially since we want to have our church wedding in the Dominican Republic so his family can be there. Since he wasn't willing to rush into it, I couldn't be baptized, so because of my husband's decision I wasn't able to continue in my chosen religion in the way I wanted too. I thought that was ridiculous.But there is this catholic guilt that overcomes you once you have practiced the faith that makes you a bit fearful to go another route-at least for me.<br />
I also don't think that non christians are doomed to hell or anything like that and as a teenager I completely dismissed the Bible entirely. So while I am a Christian, I have a very open mind as to all of this. So, I am focusing more on my spirituality right now until I work the rest out in due time!!

If you look at me, you can also see my father, but I am NOT him. God certainly manifested Himself through His son Jesus, and to know Jesus is to know God, but Jesus NEVER claimed to be the Almighty. He didn't pray to himself, He prayed to His Father and Jesus even let His deciples know when He was asked "When will the time of the end come?". He answered "Neither the angels in Heaven, nor The Son know, but only the Father". I would not dare take anything away from Jesus, but manifesting God does…

I think I gotcha!!! I think you and I see thiings in the same way. Like I've said before, I don't believe in religion, but I believe in an Almighty Creator, and He shows Himself in all of creation, because He is way beyond what our eyes can behold and ever brighter than the Sun. I am also thankful for every day of life.
