Mbo..your point is well taken. I dont approve of murder in ANY form. However, the writings of the natives of Easter Island for instance, can never be replaced because all traces of their civilization have been destroyed, and, their language has also been wiped out totally. This is not true of the priests and nuns in Panama.They were wiped out, but, their language is still around. The records of Columbus are also still around, but, he does not go into great detail about how he and his men enslaved infected and worked to death all those 100 thousand indian slaves.
