    culture… religion, yeah sure, youre right, but they do go hand in hand.

    And I guess your faith shouldnt depend on where one is born, but chrisanity’s goal has always been to “spread” thier religion whether the people want it or not.

    For a long time (and arguably still today), what religion you follow is heavily dependent on where you are born.

    Which is why I asked what exsisted before the missionaries came to the americas.

        is it why the history of before the missionaries and colonizers is so cloudy?

        because the colonizers did their best to erase it? And seem to be successful in such?

        In history, they did force it.

        Ive come back, because Im still thinking about this. I rewatched that episode about the incas yesterday. I hope you can watch (listen to) it, like, if you are to inform, I am too. There are two parts, but to inform, please consider listening to this historical documantary on what happened to the Incas, and thier religions.

          Because the word would seperate houses from houses, neighbor from neighbor and family from family.

          Many would be persecuted by their own for the sake of the Word
