Oh my god.
You *have* to be a troll.
I don't believe in evil, but you are as close to it as I can imagine.

Are they TRUELY better off? The Maya had incredible precision in their mathematics and calendar (which is actually MORE accurate than the one we use now). The Aztecs had FLUSH TOILETS when the Conquistadors were using chamber pots. The Afro-Americans were not "invited" here, they were kidnapped......
As a Caucasian, I can see that not everything Caucasians have done is necessarily "for the best" and don't EVEN get me started about how Jesus is supposed to be better. Jesus got forced on a lot of people who were CAUCASIAN and didn't want to worship him....
Check your so-called "facts" before spewing this tripe here again.....

Those are a version of the facts.
Your talking about enslaving the African people and converting them to save them and destroying numerous cultures in the name of God. Those are some of the most heinous acts man kind has ever known. Go one step farther and see the invasions of the Middle East during the Crusades and the Romans forcing their relgion down the throats of the rest of Europe.
Your not freeing anybody your raping and pillaging worse than any Saxon did.

Because we forced it on them when we said worship God or die. And the three religions from the middle east; Judaism, Christianity, and Islam; all worship the same God but believe in different prophets and different ways of showing their devotion. I wouldn't call the African Americans that were taken here lucky though except for maybe those that moved here recently because some were taken against their will.

Okay... so I am assuming you are a "Christian," right? I'm sorry, but true "Christians" don't go out looking for credit for anything, and maybe you don't know this, maybe you are new, God gave the people Jesus, God is the one to be thanked. Caucasians? Mexicans? AfroAmericans? When you talk about God and Jesus, there is no difference in these people. We are all the same to God. I am not misinterpreting you, and neither am I offended, and your "facts," my dear, are a little twisted. Maybe you are misrepresenting yourself, and your ideas are a little off.

Jesus said, "No one can come to me unless the Father draws him." People of any cultures to become Christians should thank God for his love and mercy, and thank individual Christians who brought them the good news. For example, when Christianity spread from Palestine to the Greek cities in the Mediterranean world, the new Christians were primarily grateful to Jesus for going to the cross on our behalf, and secondarily grateful to missionaries like St. Paul, who literally took a beating on their behalf. But they had no cause to be grateful to Semitic peoples, simply because Jesus and Paul came from a Jewish culture.
I agree with you that the Conquistadors, especially Cortez, did a great service to the native peoples by conquering the Aztec and Toltec theocracies, which required daily human sacrifice. Tenochtitlan was a hell of a place to be a virgin in 1500. Many of the Spanish missionaries who came to Mexico did great work by starting missions, bringing medicine, teaching literacy, and sharing their Christian faith. Still, it would be very strange if the new Mexican Christians owed some debt of gratitude to the Spanish, who also sent cruel predators like Pizarro, or to white Europeans in general, who did little or nothing on their behalf.

MEXICO had a rich culture of its own before Spaniords came. If there´s something that they brought were corruption and desease. The WORST from Spain is what came in those ships to America. We have to thank you???? OMG! You´re obviously not aware of what the mexican history before the conquest was like.
For people like you is why there´s racism.

There is no sorry in what you just stated. How are you to say we gave anybody God, God is there for every one, not just for those who spread the word, those people are doing God's work. You need to go back and start and read the bible from the beginning, and realize, that God meant his word to be spread by white, blacks, and any other race. Your facts as you call them are completely wrong. Go back and study some more, and then come talk to me.........May God show you the light.....bori.

i do no longer think of they are jealous of something. Mexican gang participants, or the different hispanic gangs do in comparison to blacks. i'm helpful the crips, and bloods are actually not stumbled on of the hispanics neither. and that they adapt to afro american lifestyle, via fact they stay in areas with somewhat some blacks.

First of all, get your "facts" straight. Not all Africans are Islamic..only a PORTION of Northern Africa is. Africa has a wealth of different religions, a lot being rooted in animism(belief of souls in inanimate objects and animals).
We can't help what happened in our past history. Yes, the slave trade and the conquering of other nations to turn them "Christian" were horrible facets of our nations history. But, it happened and we have made the best of the circumstances.
So please get your facts straight and take HISTORY into account when you make such rash statements. I'm not going to even begin to explain how racist your question sounds..

You did not "give" me Jesus. God did that. You did not invite my people to this country. We came in chains. The sweat from my ancestors brow also helped make this country what it is. Go wash your sheets. This conversation is over!!
