My culture, my traditions, this is my religion: I don't need to believe that my ancestors existed, I know it, my presence is the proof that they existed, we don't need to have faith for that, it is a fact

The cultural heritage they left me is proof of their existence, I cannot betray their memory and follow the ancestors of a people who wanted to erase my history. When you need faith to believe in the existence of a fact, it means that you are being asked to believe in someone else's imagination "My ancestors live in me and with me every day ! »

Assuming the Bible and all its stories are true? But why should I go and study the history of others and their morals, when I have one inherited from my ancestors, from my blood, built with words which belong to me and which speak to me more?

I have a Legacy that I have to protect, to develop, and to transmit to my descendants and I have there messages inherited from my ancestors, from my traditions with the words of my home which speak to me more and transcend me. In honor of mine, those who have existed and those who will come from me, I must respect and make worthy this heritage, so that it will be lasting.
