About the year 1468 AD/CE. Before Columbus arrived in the West Indies.

Leftists try to tell us that Christianity was not necessarily a good thing for the natives in the Americas - but it stopped sacrificial offerings of people on their altars of false gods.

Only Christianity brought in the Age of Reason and the Age of Wisdom. Without Christianity, there would be no individualism—no ability to have free will, for the “tribal” collective mind had no ability for people to “think” outside the State/Tribe.

That is why the House of Rothschild who created Bolshevism, Progressivism, Socialism, Communism, etc., brought in the Prussian school system of mass indoctrination-—to destroy the Chrisitan worldview and destroy the Natural Family (all common sense/Natural Laws)—demean and erase it from minds of all children—so we are returned to the Babylonian, satanic tribal ages where baby-killing, sodomy, cannibalism, slavery becomes “Good” again. We now teach our children to take Pride in sodomizing others and that boys are girls (radical egalitarianism) and that it is a Natural Right from “God” along with killing one’s genetic offspring (satanism/tribalism).

We force a satanic worldview (group ‘think’) onto our children, just like the natives of Americas had when Christians arrived—where no logic and reason (philosophy/advanced Theology) existed—just base instincts and using human beings as a means to an end is normalized (Marxism).

Vice creates slaves for the State only (Socrates). Virtue is essential for Freedom. Truth will set us Free.

The Biblical consequence of nationally legalized child sacrifice (the abomination that causes desolation) is invasion and conquest.

In 1531 - Two things happened - the Lutheran Church was established within the Holy Roman Empire, and Henry VIII was declared head of the Church of England. (The total population of those two areas - approximately 18 million people. At least half of those people split away from the Catholic Church.)

On December 12, 1531 - Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared to Juan Diego, after which approximately 8 to 9 million Indians converted to Catholic Christianity.

The new reverence to the Mother of God destroyed the native sacrifice to the Great Goddess of Teotihuacan to which sacrifices were demanded.

The Spanish Conquistadors arrival was essentially the same as the allied armies arriving in nazi death camps.

How racist. Whatever two consenting adults decide to do with their own kids is strictly between them and a high priest or social worker.

Actually, reading the full article it said “around 1450” I saw nothing about 1468. I was recently browsing in Sigurdson’s Encyclopedia of Volcanoes and saw a reference to Kuwae volcano which expelled 6 times the volume of ash that Pinatubo did in 1991. The first link below is a detailed research paper seeking to identify what volcano in the mid 1400s had caused world wide famine and disaster. I suspect the date given for the dead children is a few years early and this was a huge sacrifice because the harvests and seafoods had been severely
affected by the volcano which is in the Vanuatu area (Southern Hemisphere). First there might have been a big tsunami, then a couple of years of crop failures, significant changes in the fishing patterns, and then after several years of this a desperate plea to the gods through the sacrifice of children who may have been starving anyway. Any analysis of the nutritional status of the bodies???

Well, we need to separate out the "discovery" of the Americas from the Christianization of the Americas. yes, the latter is dependent on the former, but it is still distinct.

The discovery of the Americas was a tragedy for the native cultures in the sense that 90% died due to diseases and their "civlizations" and cultures were utterly changed.

For the people that survived, it was a better life. They got better lives and lower chances of death

As to the Christianization -- this was a large reason for the improvement of people's lives. Christianity is a positive religion - treat people nice as they are your brothers. Even a dispassionate athiest would see that
