"Know It Alls"  is the phrase that was used in the late 18 and 19th centuries to
identify the folks in the Cherokee Nation who were convinced that Christianity was
true and that it would save the nation from the preditory pioneer population.   In the
end, they signed the document that created the 1838 death march which killed
proportionally more of the Nation than the Black Death did in Europe.

For Eva and Brad:  Were the Cherokees a kind of deja-vu for the Russians or are both
the Cherokees and the Russians victims of Western  Ritual Economic Process (WREP in
Indigeneous Economics) masquerading as empiricism,  or is it just a deep seated
psychosis about every Westerner's need to become the "Great White Father" to the
world??
