Isn't America a great place that we can have these arguments?
I think God sent the Puritans, and other Christan groups to occupy this land, just like He sent Moses to occupy Israel. I believe He even told Moses to have his soldiers to thoroughly clean out the people living in the "promised land".
America is kind of the second "promised land" established by God if you will. If America were suddenly to disappear from the earth, all the countries here would revert back into feudel, warlord societies, scientific advances would grind to a halt, and freedom everywhere would die.
What kind of land do you think America would be now if the indians had won?

The issue if what kind of land this would be is moot. What others do with their property is their concern. Nor am I advocating that we undo the past. My first post on this thread states quite clearly the crimes of the past can not be undone.
You claim that God intended for our forbearer's to do this? Such a view is un Christian. Try reading the ten commandments...
V. Thou shalt not murder...
VII. Thou shalt not steal...
X. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's goods.
Attempting to use religion to justify crimes against our fellow human being is sacrilegious. Your position is immoral and theologically untenable. You are in my prayers.
