Well, obviously not these Fundies.
Who said this incredibly insensitive, ridiculous comment?
...Latin American Indians had been "silently longing" to become Christians when Spanish and Portuguese conquerors took over their native lands centuries ago.
"In effect, the proclamation of Jesus and of his Gospel did not at any point involve an alienation of the pre-Columbus cultures, nor was it the imposition of a foreign culture"...
This Fundie
Wow.
Believe it or not that mouthful of tripe came from bible thumper extraordinaire, Pope Benedict who silently longs for the days when people never thought about what others told them and for what reason, nor questioned why they were burning at a stake, nor minded the Pope rummaging around their pants for things to control.
Silently longing to be bludgeoned, murdered, raped, pillaged, sexually abused, robbed and demoralized.
I don't know anyone who would long for that sort of treatment.
How would we feel here in Canada if someone said the same about our Aboriginals with respect to the residential schools. Can you imagine if someone said our aboriginals were silent longing to be treated the way they were. How about silently longing to live in third world conditions.
I'm silently longing for this Pope to pop off ASAP. Recommend this Post
