A New Nation

I believed that the puritans are pretty high in self esteem, and quite riud as well. Our founding fathers might also be proud as well, but we're not sure if they are like that to the Indians. I believe that, to some extent they did fulfill their manifest destiny. Their manifest destiny was to stretch from shing sea to shining sea. They did, but as to the purpose and how they did it, i don't think Jesus is going to be proud about them. In the ten commandmants of christianity, one of the specific commandmant was "Thou shall not kill". The fact that we were pushing the indians away from their settlements and slaughtering them with our advance weapons ir not something that Jesus or God himself want to see. God and Jesus's sole purpose is to come down and save people, i believe that believe in the fact of world peace as well. Our manifest destiny led us off the original track of God, and led us into another misleading trail that involves slaughter and discrimination. On the surface, we did accomplish what "we", the americans believe that we did. As of the big picture of the whole himan race, we should not be proud of what we did.
The faith of the Puritans were strong, they beleived that chritianity was the only religion and the only truth. They portrays the native Americans as heretics, their belief of different Gods as heresies. I believe that's wrong, what gives our ancestors in the U.S the power to declare them as unjust and uncoventional? It contradicts of what we believed in, the freedom of speech. It was as if that was all a big lie, our past in the American history was quite a failure, the history of the Native Americans are extremely tragic, the tortures and the abandoning their homes without choice, and etc. These are all harsh past of our ancestors, the puritans are ignorant people, to think of themselves so high up.
