Shall we examine the flaws of every historical figure and expunge them from the record? Can't we acknowledge a person's accomplishments, while recognizing they were also sinners like the rest of us? "I am a most noteworthy sinner, but I have cried out to the Lord for grace and mercy, and they have covered me completely." Christopher Columbus
Slavery was a common practice of native people in Central America, along with human sacrifice, cannibalism, and constant warfare. Never tortured anyone.
