Christians hate anything of this world and sleep walk thru life ,killing those that didnt buy into their nonsense. They're the worst thing the planet has ever seen.

I know several Christians, some pretty well, and they aren't perfect, but are generally nice and kind, and certainly not as prejudiced and hateful as you make them out to be. At least, I've never heard them make sweeping stereotyped generalizations about an entire group of people, like the one in your post. I'd have to say that based on my experience, your description couldn't be any more inaccurate. They may be misguided when it comes to certain issues or ideas, but the ones I've met do more good, make more charitable donations, and get involved in more community service than any atheist I've ever met.

One of my friends and coworkers goes to a church that collected just over one ton of food and donated it to a secular food bank, no strings attached. They also bought backpacks and had them delivered to every student at a local elementary school, again, no strings attached. I might not agree with everything they believe, but they are at least motivated to do some good in our community, and not as a bribe or anything. Just to be helpful to those in need. I don't find any fault with that.

Please don't call someone a _____tard.

"saving" them?
ROFL!!!!

Boy, you Americans should really get your education system in order.
Just to avoid such stupid comments.
Learn some basic history, because you don't understand that scene at all.

To every big, bad fish (Mayans) there's an even bigger "badder" fish (the Spanish Conquistators) - that's the lesson here.
That white Christians will save nobody.
They are there looking for gold and fortune and will enslave and extinguish the Mayans (actually Aztecs) and all the other tribes in the next few years.

My reaction to the finale scene was:
"Wow, no happy end because now they are really *beep*

White supremacist christian always make me laugh. You do know that you literally worship a Middle Eastern man? Your religion is not even your own.

reply

"White supremacist Christian" is an oxymoron. Anyone who claims to be Christian and is a white supremacist certainly is not a Christian.

reply

That's why it makes me laugh, it doesn't even make sense. But clearly there are plenty of white supremacists that also claim to be Christian.

reply

Oi Liquid, there's plenty of evil middle eastern Muslims that claim to be part of the cult that is islam as well.

i mean technically they were both dark and savages

Not even close to the ending.

It's a "And then my troubles began" ending. Not sure why the Spanish are the saviors in people eyes. The ending is just the start of the troubles.
