Shiloh: A Native American Jesus

This is a work of fiction, based on the Author's Visions and dreams, Native stories, and the Bible. This is a story about a Native man called Shiloh, who has the memories of Jesus. Shiloh was born of a Native American mother named Mary and a Portuguese father named Joseph, This takes place in a world that Rome did not fall as in our world, and the head of Rome, is an elusive man known only as "the Emperor" This Rome was visited by "Aliens" Native Spirits from the Star Sirius who foretold of a prophesy concerning the end of the world. Included as part of the story is my Vision Quest that started it all for me showing a relationship between my "Dreams" and the waking world. From my Native way of looking at life there are differences in the story of Jesus and the Bible. One main difference is the "Arrow of Truth" which is a more positive replacement for the Christian idea of sin. This originated in a dream that I had about the same point in time that I wrote a poem called "This is a Circle" It was a meditation and then, the Vision Quest that brought it all together, into this story.
