No.

I think some people use God to forward their own interests. Do you think Christ would have forced children from their family homes to learn the white man’s way?

Some religions and Washington worked together to subjugate native peoples.

If you know that Christians don’t worship “Gods” then you should not have written it, but thanks for clearing it up.

“Some religions and Washington worked together to subjugate native peoples.”

What, if any, viable alternatives were there given the propensity of so many of these Amerindian cultures to revile, hold in contempt, raid, conquer, torture, enslave, and/or exterminate every last man, woman, child, and dog of their enemies?

If their positions of military dominance had been reversed, how many of the Amerindian cultures would have refrained from exterminating the european cultures and acted to preserve the European culture as subject nations for reasons of morality? Note, this question does not imply or suggest there were no such Amerindian cultures at all. It does ask how many such Amerindian cultures there could have been.
