Raping, murdering, and stealing the land from its inhabitants isn't much to be proud of.

Recognizing that none of us own anything here, but that we are merely passing through is admirable.

If You want to take credit from what others have done before us, then You must also accept blame.

The first people I know of to use chemical weapons were the ones who catapaulted dead bodies over the walls of their enemies to spread disease. After that it was us who gave blankets to the Indians that were cataminated with small pox to wipe them out.

Why aren't we raised to brag about good deeds? Is it because the people that use us to achieve more power, would lose?

Naw, that couldn't be, could it....

I assume you're talking about the European invasion of the Americas, but it's off the point of this thread.
