[Fastfeetsam]

@Thenativemma, yeah I know he doesn't have me fooled, just the people that don't have knowledge about Miccosukee/Seminole Culture!!! I don't think natives sing in English while there doing sweat lodge like in this video. Lmao

[TheNativemma]

ATTN: ALL (REAL) NATIVES. IS'NT IT FUNNY HOW A PERSON CAN GROW HIS HAIR OUT LONG AND TALK ABOUT "THE GREAT SPIRT" AND VISION QUEST CAN GET SO MANY WHITE PEOPLE TO ACTUALLY BELIEVE HIM.lol WHAT A JOKE HOMMIE. AND WHATS REALLY FUNNY IS HOW THEY CALL THEMSELVES LIKE "FLAMING EAGLE" OR RUNNING BEAR,WAR EAGLE, LIGHTING BRAVE.LOL!!!! MAN COME TO THE REZ AND SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE THESE HOLLYWOOD LAST NAMES. BE YOURSELF AND QUIT TRYING TO BE US. LEAVE MY PEOPLE ALONE!!!!

[weighsthetruth]

I hear what all of you are saying and I'm confused by this as well. The other day I saw a film on the Apache people and a rite of passage for girls. I was shocked to see this was filmed to be shared and all the world to see. It went against everything I know. Also, I live in Florida, know many Seminoles, and have never heard of this man. Of course, I don't know every single Seminole living, but I'd think I would've at least heard of him.

[sugishda]

The more non=natives that imitate a real native, will abuse and disrespect the ways! Pretty soon it will not mean anything anymore, we will be looking for something to latch onto, to try to belong somewhere, just like you lost souls!  I know alot of non-natives, but they don't act and do what this joker does! Stick to your bible, it is your way! And leave the native ways to the natives!

[Fastfeetsam]

@moonredhawk, exactly!!!!

[MoonRedHawk]

I am a breed and I know this is not real. First, it is sacred and would not be video taped like this. Second medicine men do not crave attention.  It is not the way. If this man wants to walk the way that's fine but don't pretend to be what you are not.

[TheNativemma]

@MoonRedHawk TRUTH SOKEN!!

[Fastfeetsam]

uncles are medicine men, and I know alot more people that are. I've grown up speaking the language and seen and heard the medicine of the Miccosukee Seminole, so I know for sure that he's not a Seminole medicine man!!!

[TheNativemma]

@Fastfeetsam I AM A FULL BLOODED SEMINOLE AND THIS DUDE AINT FOOLING ANYBODY THAT IS REAL NATIVE, JOKE IF U ASK ME, HE SAID THAT HE WAS ON DRUGS AND WENT INTO THE DESERT TO FIND THE "GREAT SPIRIT"LOL HE PEOBABLY STILL ON THEM

[TheNativemma]

@TheNativemma MY BADD PROBABLY STILL ON THEM,LOL

[Fastfeetsam]

sorry people, he's not a seminole medicine man, I'm a Miccosukee Seminole and my uncle

[Pandrillhog]

I am GOD, so when I say "Oh, my God", I say "Oh, my Me"...word to the mothership!

[seminolewar]

I don't care what you believe or what you do in Utah. I live in Seminole and Miccosukee country, and you ain't one of them and they don't know you from adam. It is misrepresentation for you to claim that you are a "Seminole Medicine Man." So stop calling yourself something that you are not. I don't care about your non-Seminole peyote ceremonies in Utah and defending that prostitution house on the tv news in front of the DA in Phoenix, Arizona. None of that is the Seminole way either.

[TheGmccoy]

@seminolewar You are obviously self conscious about who you are as a person. It shouldn't matter if he isn't Seminole. A Seminole person has decided to teach him. Why should you care?

[seminolewar]

@TheGmccoy This person Moody claims to have taught him was not Seminole, the late "Little Dove" Buford, formerly of Orange Springs, Florida. Her group has claimed to be from 16 different tribes over the years. Saying that Moody knows Seminole medicine is a fraud when he can't even pronounce Oklewaha even remotely correct. All the real Seminoles recognize them for the fraud they are.

[TheNativemma]

@TheGmccoy THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT HE'S SAYING THAT HES SEMINOLE. AND HES NOT!! THATS A POSER! AND I AGREE WITH SEMINOLEWAR. YOU SAID 'WHY SHOULD YOU CARE" BECAUSE HES MAKING A BAD NAME FOR OUR PEOPLE!! AND BY THE WAY WE DO NOT USE PEYOTE! THATS NOT IN OUR TRADITIONS. AND FUTHER, OUR SEMINOLE ELDERS DONT JUST TEACH NON SEMINOLE (WHITE PEOPLE) OUR TRADITIONS AND WAYS. THIS IS SACRED TO US AND WE WONT JUST GIVE IT AWAY!!! LATER. A FULL BLOODED SEMINOLE

[TheNativemma]

@seminolewar STAND UP FO' ARE PEOPLE FOLK! IM BEHIND YOU 100% WHITES ALWAYS TRYING TO STUNT ON US. IF THEY ARE WHITE.....LET THEM ACT WHITE. IF THEY ARE BLACK..LET THEM BE BLACK. PEOPLE JUST NEED TO BE THEMSELVES. IT ALWAYS CRACKS ME UP TO SEE THESE PEOPLE AT A POWWOW AND WEARING ALL THEIR TURQUOISE JEWELRY & CHOKERS.HAHAHA

[TheNativemma]

@SUGISHDA-HOW COME WHEN PEOPLE RELATE TO GOD THEY SAY"THE GREAT SPIRIT". 1ST. OF ALL WE DO NOT CALL GOD "THE GREAT SPIRIT" THAT IS A STRAIGHT UP HOLLYWOOD THANG. WE DONT TALK WITH GAPS IN BETWEEN OUR WORDS. WE DONT SIT WITH OUR HAND CROSSED AND OUR BACKS STRAIGHT. THATS ALL HOLLYWOOD SON!! WE ARE NOT WHAT THE GEN. PUBLIC THINK ABOUT US. AND ALL OF THIS SEEKING GOD......IS SACRED AND NOT FOR THE PUBLIC, THATS WHAT THE WORD SACRED MEANS. I C ALL THE VIDS.ON HERE &THEY R NOT TRUTH.-A FULL BLOOD-

[TheNativemma]

THIS IS MORE LIKE NEW AGE NOT! LIKE REAL TRADITION. I AM SEMINOLE AND WE ARE NOT! FROM UT. WE ARE FROM FL AND OK. THIS DUDE DONT EVEN LOOK SEMINOLE. PIPES,PAINTED COWHEAD.LOL COME ON MAN, IM JUST SAYING CHECK YO SELF CHEPON.

[chiefster99]

It is very unforunate that all mankind have the choice of making up their own kooky beliefs and putting it on youtube. LMAO, but this takes the cake!! Iam a Plains Cree First Nation, and I have to agree with sugishda on this one, I really feel for the ladies that felt the amazement of the ceremony which for the most part could be similar to our ceremony, but Hey!! David Koresh of WACKO did that too about the bible and he ain't no savior. Sacred? I don't know, ever heard the term "popcorn elder

[sugishda]

well of course you are supposedly native! you sound like you are lost, by your words! otherwise you wouldn't associate with a clown like this guy! we try to hang on to our traditions because their are idiots like him, that learn the ways and pretend to be a native and charge other stupid people, such as yourself! makes me sick! i don't see any brown skinned people in this video, only pale ones!

[BelleNex]

@sugishda If all you have to be proud of in your life and your measure of another human being is their skin color than you be you are lost and I hope you find your way. Keep traditions alive but not through prejudice.

[sugishda]

you are so full of crap! No Native American Indian would even put this on the web for all to see! It is to be kept among yourselves. You don't see people with red skin doing what you are doing! you iritate the shit out of me! your words are all white like you! how much do you charge these people? You should stop this B.S. otherwise you gonna learn your lesson, By the REAL SPIRITS!!!!!

[BelleNex]

@sugishda I am Blackfoot and Powhatan. First, Jamesflamingeagle has never asked me for money whenever we have conversed online. Second, all humans need guidance. Great Spirit is not racist only people are. I would rather see "White People" learn to live respectfully then try to greedily clutch beliefs and traditions like a miser. The more people who learn to honor life, the more healing we spread, the happier we will all be. Red, white, brown, black, purple or green skinned.

[ashiinsane90]

@BelleNex I love natives, from Egypt <3

[MrAngryindian]

@BelleNex Mooney is an impostger posing as Seminole who charges for ceremony all the time, and he sells peyote for profit like a drug dealer. Oklehueva are NOT part of the NAC. It's not about race, only whites like Mooney pretend that it is. It's about being a fraud and pay to pray exploiters.

[BelleNex]

@MrAngryindian If those allegations are true then I understand people being angry with him. I wont convict a person in my thoughts without evidence but I understand what you are saying. As for what race he is, I dont know the particulars of his parentage personally. The First Nation People are an occupied people and deserve respect and support towards their freedom. But we must also learn to work together and with others towards the common good. The infighting is counterproductive

[TheNativemma]

@MrAngryindian I AM FULL BLOODED SEMINOLE AND WE DO USE PEYOTE AT ALL. THATS NOT OUR TRIBAL BELIEF!!! ANOTHER WHITE DUDE WITH LONG HAIR TRYING TO ACT LIKE A BRUTHA.lol

[jamesflamingeagle]

Thank You (Wandan)

[SpeaksZen]

[BelleNex]
