Meet the natives -channel 4 thursday - great programme The religion of Tanna is cargo cult. They believe that a large aeroplane will land bringing them riches. Much the same as the religion of the people who do the lottery every week.

Once a large aeroplane did land. Instead of riches, out stepped the Duke of Edinburgh. It's easy to see how the confusion arose.

In West Africa, the Wahuba people worship a 1922 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost as the supreme being. The words for silver and holy are very similar in the Wahuba language and the missionary who owned the car was eaten before he could explain the mistake. no he would never have been god. No thanks, I'm half chinese!!!!!!! lol................. Is this one of those "Cargo Cult" questions?

No, I would not like that. Yeah I would... although it might be easier to go and find a new island (kick off any other inhibitors!) and then start up my own little world where I can keep my own God, but live like them... or convert them all, but that sounds mean seeing as they are so happy. NEVER!
