I think it’s about time for the Hawaiians to join the melting pot. We can tell them god isn’t real and then it won’t be sacred.

- defrost 3y agoThey're not monotheist - one god down is hardly enough. the mountain is the dwelling place of the goddess Poli'ahu, it is associated with the Hawaiian deities Lilinoe and Waiau, and the summit is considered the realm of the gods. https://sites.uab.edu/humanrights/2020/03/06/maunakea-the-fight-to-protect-sacred-land/ https://sites.uab.edu/humanrights/2020/03/06/maunakea-the-fi...
- mulmen 3y agoIs this supposed to be a joke? If so it’s not a very good one. How much do you know about Hawaiian beliefs? You seem to assume Hawaiian culture is based on a monotheistic religion but that’s not the only option and certainly not required for a site to be considered culturally sacred.
