As we look down into John Frum’s fiery Tanna home, I remind him that not only does he not have an outboard motor from America, but that all the devotees’ other prayers have been, so far, in vain. “John promised you much cargo more than 60 years ago, and none has come,” I point out. “So why do you keep faith with him? Why do you still believe in him?”
Chief Isaac shoots me an amused look. “You Christians have been waiting 2,000 years for Jesus to return to earth,” he says, “and you haven’t given up hope.”
“We should drink kava, worship the magic stones and perform our ritual dances.”
I love the valuable information you offer on your article. I will bookmark your weblog and I am moderately positive they will be informed quite a lot of new stuff here than anybody else!
