That totally ignores       the NORTHERN expansion of the Spanish and French, which       predated "western expansion" by several centuries.       The Spanish had a particular interest in saving       the heathen souls by converting them - while       at the same time enslaving them.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
