My opinion as a Christian is that how can we know he didnt send prophets else where? Native Americans do speak of "The Great White Father".

In that case, the other prophets failed miserably. I guess God send the wrong people out sometimes . . . . . . . . .

Why does God need prophets?

Because meeting him face to face would kill somebody or something?

Then why can He perform all sorts of miracles and nobody keels over from the shock of recognizing the Supreme Head Honcho of the Universe?

Meaning that god is Caucasian? Or the prophets are white? Im sure god would have some Indian prophets in stock and wouldnt have to send white ones to the Native Americans

all the prophets for these religion were in the middleast because these were middleastern religions at the time. whether or not there was a god he sure didn't send anyone down there. some people just started acting a bit off their rockers and ended up inventing a religion.

The prophets were prophesied as was Jesus. If they did not show and the prophecies were not fulfilled, we would have no proof. Duh PP.
