  • Straight to Godwin, huh? Not to mention it's hardly a good comparison. Spain and Europe's empire expansion philosophy as a whole would have led to the same result once the New World was discovered. If you disagree with that, then I don't know how to talk to you about this topic. It's obviously a totally different case than what Hitler did.

    Edit: Just to clarify, I'm not saying Columbus wasn't a terrible human being, just that even if he was a saint, the outcome for indigenous peoples on this continent would have been the same. If you want to focus your hatred on one man as the source of all the suffering and genocide here, I'd probably go with Cortez over Columbus, but it would still be misplaced hatred

  • Look, I hate this too, but that's not what that passage means, clearly. Addendums aren't the same as adding new fake scripture (although since there are multiple ideologies on what books of the Bible should be cannon, who's to say). Put your pitchfork down.

  • I'm surprised you managed to figure out how to make a Lemmy account considering you can't even tell when more than one person responds to you. And acting all wounded when you didn't bother to RTFA and someone is kind enough to spoon feed you anyway is very reddit of you.
