   Wonderful thoughts on God
"...Hatuey, after being caught by the Spanish Christians in 1565, was told before being burned alive at the stake that, in his short time left, he could be saved and sent to heaven if he adopted the Christian faith. He asked the Franciscan friar if all Christians went to Heaven. When he told him yes, Hatuey said he'd rather burn in hell. Such fame and honour our God has earned through the Chritians who have gone to the Indies."
~Bartolome de las Casas

Las Casas was a priest. He ridicules God throughout this whole passage as he recounts hundred upon hundred of Native Indians (in effectively what is now Cuba) being burned alive, slowly, while being whipped countless times. He, as a priest, claims himself himself that the only reason the complete torture of these people was happens was simply because they did not believe in the same God that the Spanish conquistadors did. They were all killed because they were not Christians. How can anyone follow a religion that allows this to happen? This is just one of the so many other cases in not only Christian history, but that of Muslim, Jewish, and so many others. The only thing to conclude here is not that faith saves, but that it leads to pain, suffereing, and ultimately death.

I sure as hell hope religion doesn't become again what it previously was, or there is no longer hope for anyone. Such a shame something so perfect in plan has to be completely ruined by the same people who concieved it. Must be a human trait.
