I’m Sorry, but White settlers are what brought the industry to South Africa. Mining, Farming, Civilization. Where would Africa be if it had not been for white settlers? ....about 2000 years behind.
And yet, the settlers may not have been spiritually serious enough to grapple with what came with Africa. Had they to do it over, they would have insisted on evangelizing guest populations.
More like 3000 years behind.
And if Whites hadn’t come in and tried to develop it, the Indians, Persians, or Chinese would have done so.
Stone Age civilizations don’t survive long in this world.
