DIARY CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS e-bog

In appoint this work naming Christopher Columbus as the hero of humanity, I do not mean to beatify or canonize him. He did not use fair methods at all, nor was he honest at all, nor did he act at all with a clear and crystalline conscience.This work is a compilation of the Diary of Christopher Columbus, the navigator, so I will not go on these pages to dwell on the heroism of Columbus, only the personal Diary of Columbus in the days before and after the discovery of America.Man's life is like this, we go on living, then the judgment of others will tell whether we were heroes or villains. For certain people and at a certain time some are heroes and these same characters can be seen as villains. I do not hide that I see Columbus as a hero, but in presenting Columbus's diary I give readers the opportunity to examine for yourselves Columbus's narratives about his days that made him famous worldwide and placed him on the list of fame in human history.Christopher Columbus is for navigation what Neil Armstrong was for astronautics, being the first man to set foot on the moon. Christopher Columbus risked everything, put his life on the line several times, lived like a castaway on an island in America. With the coming of Columbus the Europeans settled in America and with them came Christianity, with all its imperfect Christians, but in a way the Gospel came and the name of God was extolled, the cult of demons was repressed and the Indians and blacks were called to worship the true God. In his distress Christopher Columbus cried out to God, to the living God. God gave the natives of America time to seek him out and release his demons, as they did not do after centuries, God sent the Europeans to abolish the cult of the devil and institute the Christian religion.
