I'm giving this thread a well-deserved annual bump. As we sit down for the family dinner tonight, lets be thankful for smallpox that allowed us to take ownership of this land! Thar was such an excellent plan on God's part, to keep the Indians plague-free until we showed up, so that their organisms were completely helpless leading to their complete decimation.
Everything that happens is God's Will - and what happened to Native Americans was such a spectacular example of God's Plan for humanity!
