If this god was a god. The last thing he would of done was go to America to teach Indians about Christianity.
1. If he did he did a shitty job.
2. The Indians were mostly wiped out by European descendants taking their land. He would of been better off going to Ireland if he wanted Christianity in the US. Or didn't he know that?
3. The centres of power in those days were China, Egypt and Rome. He could of gone there, shown he was the true risen Messiah and preached his teaching to people who could make a difference in the known world and saved millions of lives. That have been lost every day since with people arguing over which way to worship this one god.
It's like Jews being "the chosen people". They've had a raw deal since that was put upon them. But it did give them the excuse to murder tens of thousand and steal their land. Read the papers and bible for proof. Also it allows them to feel superior over their fellow man.
