Time to teach them Christianity, take over their tribe and make it democratic.

Thats what God would want.

Wouldn't it be weird to be minding your own buisness doing some logging for your job and suddenly some strange red jungle dwellers run up and start shooting you with bow&arrows? haha
Its hard to believe that kind of isolation even still exists. When I think of having isolated jungle people with no contact to the outside world i think -1600's or indiana jones movie not 2008

I just did a paper for my Anthropology class on Survival Intl they help indigenous groups world wide. The Peruvian gov wanted to open areas were they knew uncontacted tribes were for oil exploration. Those who were pro oil doubted these tribes existence. This is a pretty big feal for this issue and anthropology in general. Not it only is their land threatend but they are also threatend by diseases that are very common to us.

I find it kinda interesting how in school we have to call them Native Americans because it is politically correct. But on that website they call them Indians.
I wonder what their reasoning is behind painting their bodies orange? It doesn't seem like a very effective camoflauge.
