ps totally disagreed. The war began..As the slave runners began to come after the Jesuits and their Indian friends, things began to go downhill. People were killed. Babies, mothers, and children were shot in cold blood. They were shot all because the slavers saw them as nothing more than animals. To me, that is terrible. The slavers did nothing but destroy the missions that had been made and the security that the Indians had began to feel within those missions. There is no way to justify that. It's just plain cruel.In conclusion, I believe that the film very much so proves that the Jesuits were generous and kind people. They viewed the world with colorblind eyes. And it paid off, maybe that's something we as Americans need to do today. Even though the majority of the people (Spanish and Portuguese) totally believed what they were doing was right, it in no way was. The Jesuits took a stand. They lost a lot for doing it, but they had the justice of knowing they did the right thing. The pride that comes with that is priceless, and that they can keep with them forever. ...
