   > Let them have their country and let them kick the hauli trespassers into the   
   sea. But alongside that they should begin a healing process by overcoming the   
   amnesia regarding the reason for saying a mountain is a god or is sacred.   
      
   I don't know if it's important why any particular people feel that something   
   is sacred. If it's revered, it's revered. For whatever reason. How does that   
   cause harm to anyone else? There are some places that should never be   
   desecrated, and there are some    
   places that have a spiritual meaning that shouldn't allow for materialistic   
   actions. I think it would be sad to live in a world where certain places were   
   devoid of all spiritual meaning, and where people would call that an   
   'awakening'. There's enough '   
   non-sacred' land on this planet where construction can happen. Why do sacred   
   places have to be disturbed? Why should anyone be asked to give that part of   
   themselves up?
