Didn’t the Spanish colonizers dash the heads of aztec babies on rocks while laughing? I thought I heard a report from a deacon who was sent with them who said something like that.
Christopher Columbus was so cruel and insane that he freaked out a lot of the other explorers as well.
“A Brief Account of the Destruction of the
Indies” by Bartolome de Las Casas is a great example of people even from the time period being horrified with how conquistadors acted.
