Truth About Christopher Columbus |
10-2-19, Ben Broussard* -- Should Christopher Columbus be vilified instead of honored? Was he really a villain? Every Columbus Day is the same: Christopher Columbus is attacked. His statues are desecrated. Public monuments in his honor are threatened or removed. Every year, more states and cities change Columbus Day to “Indigenous Peoples’ Day” or “Native Americans’ Day.” And left-wing professors smear the once-revered hero who discovered America in 1492. Following are truths that debunk myths:
| 4. Columbus was a philanderer? No. In 1477 his first wife died shortly after the birth of his first son, Diego. In 1487 he married Beatriz de Arana in 1487 in Spain; Fernando was born in 1488. He lived out the Catholic Church’s teaching on chastity; believing that sins of impurity would consign souls to eternal punishment. 5. Columbus only sailed to become wealthy seeking gold? No. Although he did seek gold and other valuables, his intent wasn’t for personal gain. His greatest unfulfilled desire was to reclaim Jerusalem and the Holy Land where Christ shed His most precious blood. After he founded La Navidad on the island of Hispaniola on December 25, 1492, he wrote: “I hope to God that when I come back here from Castile, I will find a barrel of gold, for which these people have traded, and that they will have found the gold mine, and the spices, and in such quantities that within three years the Sovereigns will prepare for and undertake the reconquest of the Holy Land. I have already petitioned Your Highnesses to see that all the profits of my enterprise should be spent on the conquest of Jerusalem, and Your Highnesses smiled and said that even without the expedition they had the inclination to do it.” 6. Columbus was born in Genoa, Italy, in 1451 - Phyllis Schlafly writes: “Christopher Columbus had a belief that God intended him to sail the Atlantic Ocean in order to spread Christianity." *Excerpted and adapted full original ten point report here https://tfpstudentaction.org/blog/christopher-columbus-myth-vs-fact https://wetheitalians.com/single_post/10-things-people-get-wrong-about-columbus |
