I might not. I know the history of my church. I know that it wasn't always pretty. The cardinal sold out the missions to placate the crowns of Spain and Portugal which in hindsight was the wrong thing to do. Sadly, this has happened many times because the Church has humans in it. People who are only thinking of themselves and their jobs instead of doing the right thing. So, I might not take what you have to say in the wrong way. The movie has some thought provoking stuff in it, especially when it came to the decisions that Fr. Gabriel and Mendoza make. If you like, we could discuss this issue in a PM discussion?
