True.
Don’t make the mistake of assuming ancient people were dumb. Not assuming you did by the way.
Not dumb, but primitive and spiritually vulnerable
I think the more advanced pagan gods probably were real people at one time. But of course, merely mortal men
The less advanced, like Africans, Arabs, Hindus etc were probably demon influenced
Yeah lol
Well ultimately I'm sure demonic influence played a part in all of them
Especially with Roman incest, human sacrifice etc
The Norse, native American pagans, the Aztec, Inca and so on all practiced infant sacrifice
That's why I get so pissed when someone says evil white man/Catholic/Euro exterminated them...well, they killed and ate their own children, do you really feel sorry for them?
Gah I hate that too. Don’t lecture me when it’s my ancestors that taught these savages not to rape and murder each other.
The left isn't much different. They sacrifice their own children for their own convenience. They are their own gods
Damn near everyone I know thinks the American Indians(feather) were just peaceful happy people until Europeans showed up.
Yeah that’s true.
Everyone seems to forget these nuts were raping, enslaving, murdering, and sacrificing their children.
Indians weren't even a nation. They were several tribes constantly at war with each other.
Their tribal nations weren't based on land and geography, they were based on family ties
Yeah. That’s a difficult concept to understand too.
And they didn't all fight us. A lot of them allied with us because they hated the other tribe, the enemy of my enemy is my friend
Exactly.
To bring this back to religion... Those people would still be that way if not for devout Christians converting them.
Ever been to Saint Augustine?
There's a Catholic museum there, you'd like it even not being Catholic
Old artifacts from the first Christians here, paintings etc
When the Spanish first landed, the priest held mass on the beach there to thank God they made it across
Georgia right? I’ve never been. I think my parents have before.
Can't remember his name
But when he was having mass, the natives came out of the woods
And all mimicked what the congregation was doing, making sign of the cross, kneeling etc
So the priest actually used the Lord's Prayer to teach them an alphabet. They didn't have any system of writing before
He just matched Latin alphabet with the sounds of their spoken language
That’s awesome.
I knew they were taught reading/writing by the settlers. From my understanding it was mostly the clergy that did it.
Father Francisco López de Mendoza Grajales
That was his name
I went to it three years ago, it was pretty awesome
It's in Florida btw, not Georgia
Oh. My bad lol.
Gah I should know that too
