@mysteek29 you mean: to "free" people.

Yo no entiendo que hacen los españoles en esos lugares. Cual es el interes, "llevar la palabra", "buscar oro", "fama", en fin ellos como siempre lo han hecho desde la conquista tienen intereses obscuros. Por que no dejan a esa gente en paz. Si ellos estan bien así en armonia con la naturaleza, pues que dejen vivir. El problema todo esta en esta cultura occidental que todo ve acumular riquezas, tener mucho mas que ser. Los españoles nunca van a comprender porque ellos tienen paradigmas diferentes

@Ausiz o sorry i missunderstood you sorry, i totally agree with you. I love this kind of encounters with exotic forms of culture, cause they estimulate our critic resource towards our axiomatic non criticaly evaluated values. Its great to respect their forms of culture, and it is usefull to limit nowadays global liberal capitalism and its derivates from imposing universaly and degradating nature. It also helps to relativise our manquiesm, and comonly acepted forms for localising good and evil

@pedrosg92 I am talking about current situation, not what happened centuries ago. These missionaries are not forcing nobody. If the indigenous religion suits them better, they will just ignore these missionaries..that's all. There are even christian missionaries who converted to indegenous religion after trying convert some tribes, because they began to like the indigenous ways more than christianity.. that's freedom.

@razorwatt you are reasoning like a numb, like and idiot. I can asure you, misioners were the best that could happen to colonial sistem. Only very few european people, at the historical contexts were colonies develope were exent of religious arrogance and fanatism, it just a generalized mentality wich has its faults as ours may have nowadays(. my english sucks i now i am from argentina). We don't live in wonderland, we can't pretend misioners at the time to aply liberal filosofy towards natives

@Ausiz what. Excuse, by i study history and there are plenty of documental information that proves that precolonial religious practise got progresively censored by the religious institution in spanish colonies. You may sai that this does not supress automatically the subjetive believe but generates a progresive degradation of the material and simbolic forms of tradition wich are the means by exellency of mantaining beliefs. So there was an evident coercitive aplication of catholic doctrine

@RosieRebel it is more fair to admit, interests were too complex to belittle a 2 groups division. I study History at colllege and american precolonial societies had their own problems and many inherent conflicts and wars, we cannot judge so easily today the actions of some believers. Misioners were well intentioned and their cuote of religious arrogance was the least you could expect at the time. SORRY ABOUT MY ENGLISH, I AM FROM ARGENTINA. Many societies were allready abused by local powers

When we look back in history and say these people were robbed of their own culture, they you make those people helpless victims rather than rational beings who make their own choices. Missionaries although I do not like their role in colonization, they believe they are saving souls, sometimes people want to be saved. Go to Mexico and tell me that they don't love the Virgin Mary. They re-invented her & made their own Virgin of Guadelupe. I don't understand why people sit around getting angry.
I hate Missionaries. what right do they have to spread their religion to free people?
