How traditional Indigenous education helped four lost children survive 40 days in the Amazon jungle

Eliran Arazi, Hebrew University of Jerusalem

The discovery and rescue of four young Indigenous children, 40 days after the aircraft they were travelling in crashed in the remote Colombian rainforest, was hailed in the international press as a “miracle in the jungle”. But as an anthropologist who has spent more than a year living among the Andoque people in the region, conducting ethnographic fieldwork, I cannot simply label this as a miraculous event.

At least, not a miracle in the conventional sense of the word. Rather, the survival and discovery of these children can be attributed to the profound knowledge of the intricate forest and the adaptive skills passed down through generations by Indigenous people.

I am a romantic fool

June 14, 2023 /Human Interest/ — The joke is that you are a romantic fool who is always getting yourself into trouble.

The word “fool” can have two meanings:

  • A person who is innocent or naive.

In the context of the joke, you are the latter type of fool. You are a romantic fool who is always getting yourself into trouble because you are too trusting and naive.

You are always falling in love with the wrong people, and you are always getting your heart broken. But you never learn your lesson. You keep on being a romantic fool, even though you know that it will only lead to pain. Continue reading

Was KJV bible written by queers

June 1, 2023 /Lifestyle/ — There is no definitive answer to the question of whether King James I of England was homosexual. Some historians believe that he may have been, while others believe that there is no evidence to support this claim.

There are a few pieces of evidence that could be interpreted as suggesting that King James may have been homosexual. For example, he was known to be close friends with several men, and he once wrote a poem in which he described himself as being “in love” with another man. However, it is also possible that these relationships were simply platonic, and that King James’ poem was simply a literary device. Continue reading
