    Obviously, you are unaware of the old adage of the pot calling the kettle black.

    Similarly, the fact that one you point a finger, there are three fingers pointing back at yourself.

    One cannot blame the decimation of the Native Americans, slavery, segregation, and racism in American solely on the Puritans. The major Christian denominations, both Catholic and Protestant were complicit in these evils.
