“You also seem to believe in a very left wing version of history. That the Spanish went in and wholesale cleaned house of all the natives.”

I didn’t say anything about that at all. Diseases from the New World wiped out a lot of them. nwrep praised God for the Conquerors and suggested that perspective as true. So don’t twist that on me.

What I said was, based on the very factual Spanish Inquisition, to praise one savage brutal culture as being righteous for destroying another savage brutal culture is hypocritical. The Spanish were no more civilized than the Aztecs where brutal savagery is concerned. They just had more advanced sophisticated toys to use for their human sacrifices than the Aztecs did. And they claimed savage, brutal, ignorant murder was God’s will. Once again:

And the Spanish Inquisition was not mass savage and brutal human sacrifice to a God? And the mass murder of these people was more righteous than their human sacrifice?

It is a simple yes or no question I’m sure you are intelligent enough to understand, yet you refused to acknowledge or answer. Ignoring it will not change the historical reality of it. It is the pot calling the kettle black.

“The Conquistadors defending themselves and sacking the Aztecs”

Good thing they kept the Natives from attacking Spain! Are you kidding me? Defending themselves? I am not sure I have heard anything so twisted backwards before. Their very title “Conquistadors” proves exactly the opposite. Their title is not “defenders”.

Let me start again. There was nothing in the article content about sacrificial practices OR the conquistadors. It is about a settlement of Artisans and Craftsmen. There was absolutely nothing that should have triggered nwrep to praise God for the Conquistadors destroying them. Like you said, the perspective is false to begin with. But it was not my perspective, I didn’t say it. The article didn’t even hint of it.
