The Arapaho Creation Story describes how the world was formed from mud and water, initiated by Father with the help of turtle and duck.
This account highlights a fundamental belief in Arapaho spirituality: the interconnectedness of all living beings, all share a home and should support one another.
The absence of evil in the Arapaho Creation Story indicates a view of a perfect, balanced world, with any human objections stemming from personal interpretation.
Throughout variations of the story, the Creator's intent reflects a generosity of spirit among all inhabitants, who are intimately connected as family.
