Bartolome de las Casas is a proper name of a man who vbecane a Dominican friar and who argued for civil rights for native Americans whether or not they were Christian, much less Catholic.

Sounds like a pretty good guy.

I think so too. It’s interesting to read how the notions of international law and natural rights were, if not originated, certainly developed because of the discovery and exploitation of the Americas.
