<.The utter conviction that the Creator, at the origin of things, had presented all the cattle in the world to the Indo-Europeans, thusly making it comfortable and reasonable for them to attempt to get all the cattle "back" from representatives of other belief systems, who had self-evidently come by them dishonestly! This notion, a single item in a "belief system," was a driving force in the relationships between the Indo-Europeans and their neighbors, who took exception to this God-given truth, for thousands of years.> Why, thank you for pointing that out, E. I am a little confused, however. In the story I read, the Creator presented all the forests, oceans, oil, gold, silver, spices, fertile land, and sexual favors with all the comely women and girls of color to the Indo-Europeans. Their slogan, as they plundered? "In the name of God!!!" Their doctrine? Manifest Destiny. This is a really interesting link I found, about this doctrine and the American Indians. ticsay.com
