The greatest thing that happened to those people was the gospel of Jesus Christ being introduced to them and their families. No more eternal damnation.
Have you heard of Pat's new program, to return the United States to the Lord? I love it.

I suppose it would have been just as wonderful if I my people had traveled over to the European countries and raped and pillaged your homes. Murdered your families. Nearly demolished your languages and cultures and shoved our religious beliefs so far down your throats that your Great great great grandchildren could still taste its bitterness.
Then we could have lied about your history and forced what was left of you to live in small camps filled with disease, filth and starvation. But we would call it "saving" you.
Who were the true heathens?
I know that my words fall on deaf ears and your eyes cannot see past your own twisted visions so I will waste no more of my time on your ignorance.
I will pray to The Great Spirit that he might give you clarity of heart and mind. And when you people are finished bashing my brothers and sisters I will still feed you at my families table for my people are still kind and forgiving!

No, the Native Americans were cursed by the gospels and the teaching of Jesus Christ, they have lost so much of their history, most of their languages, and suppression on their way of life.
Open your eyes and ears, and most of all, open your mind to the truth, and don't be brainwashed by christianity's lies.
Do some research on the Native Americans.

To me, Eternal Damnation began the minute the first White Man set foot on our shores.

I think we all need to study the u.s. constitution- all this happened based on the Papal Bull, the constitution was very specific in excluding us as citizens, we were not supposed to be here making this argument, all enrolled tribal members need to dis-enroll from the corrupt Tribal Government scheme, it was their own doing, although congress has authority for commerce with the tribes-let them all who want to be chiefs do that and the rest of us can be Indians and become independent indian nations, being dependant nations got us what????? NON-INTERCOURSE ACT, it is hard to steal legally, it is tough to get away with murder unless you are the U.S.

Yes, and the gospel-bringing white man loved the natives so much that they sent 90% of them to heaven right away. The others they sent to heaven thru things like forced marches on the Trail of Tears and giving them blankets intentionally laced with smallpox.

Oh yes, the best thing to happen to "those people," the push of Jesus on them that caused people to try to eradicate their cultures and languages, stole their children away and forced them into religious boring schools that would try to turn them into brown caucasian Christians. Many of those kids abused and many to never see their families again. Yup, the best thing ever! *note sarcasm if you don't get it*

And... what was the second greatest thing? Alcoholism? Small pox? Reservations placed on the crappiest land imaginable? Kidnapping their children for the purposes of raising them as "Christian?" The near-eradication of wonderful, vibrant cultures and traditions?
White settlers did not do these people ANY favours.

We were doing just fine, Jesus could have come and preached here. We didn't need white men to do it.
Yea, sure and it was to the benefit of the black man to be brought here in slave ships to be slaves.
White men did us all a great big favor. Pat Robertson is like all white men he just wants money. When they say it isn't about the money then you know it is about the money.

Paul S nailed it, one fundie extremist is much like another. And Pat (foot in mouth) Robertson is one of the biggest idiots on the planet.

That would be treason, of course. Pat and Osama are just two peas in a pod.
