I always just kind of justified it by saying that it was just the expansion of the world and that it was inevitable.
However, listen to this point made by Michael Knowles when he slams Columbus for stealing the Native Americans' land and points out that the Native Americans were battling each other and stealing land from one-another, so how is that different than what Columbus did? Just because he had more advanced weapons and technology, that somehow makes it worse than what the Native Americans were doing to each other?
Am I the only one that's just now thinking of that?
Is it wrong to think that way?
If so, why is it wrong?
Would Jesus kill them and take their lands because they were doing it, too?
Why is killing and stealing wrong?
You're ***** with me, right?
