Daniel Menendez, Genesis

The Genesis and Native Americans view on creation are very related. For example, In Genesis when it speaks of God being all powerful the beliefs of the Indians were the same. The Indians view on creation was much more in depth than the genesis story. In the Genesis story when the speak of God creating night and day there is a part in the native americans story very similar. They speak of the west as night and the east as yellow or day. The simalriaties of two very different cultures on the creation story are very close. The native americans speak of the 7 days and everything God created in the Genesis story matches up with the seven direction story of the natives.
