Isn’t that special! If anyone wants to read first hand evil of huge proportions, just read “ The Conquest of Mexico “
by Prescott. Those Aztec’s were incredibly evil and possessed by some awful beliefs which simply satisfied their lust for blood.

Didn’t Mel Gibson’s “Apocalypto” deal with some of this on film?

And our elite educators criticize the evil Christians from Spain for conquoring them!

If you want a first-hand account, read “The True History of the Conquest of New Spain” by Bernal Diaz. It is still in print as a Penguin Classic.
Diaz was a conquistador with Cortes from the formation of the expedition in Cuba to the reduction of the Aztec cities in the north after the final fall of Tenochtitlán (Mexico City).
