Alright, so the title may seem out of context with what the website is about… But it is actually a paper that I am going to write.  Essay due Monday, August 21, 2006.  What class is the paper for?  The paper is for IB History of the America’s of course.  I should say that this is a great way to start off the course.  Was Christopher Columbus actually a villain?  I think I will argue that he was a villain, and provide every single possibility that he was.

My aim for the school year is to break away from the normal, break the box, let alone think outside of it.

I would like to post my essay when I finish with it, but I am having a hard time deciding whether to do so.  The internet is a great place to find information and publish it, but of course there are those who like to steal information rather than creating their own.

If anyone would like to post their input on whether Christopher Columbus is a villain or not, please feel free to do so, as I may like to gather inspiration when I type my essay.

That’s a great topic. The arguement that Columbus was a villain is an interesting one and also backed up with a lot of proof.

I’d say it could be interpreted that he was a villain. He proved the whole world wrong and re-established an entirely new system of ideas. I bet half of the world was going insane because of it.

I am currently doing a paper on this guy. He didn’t just kill those natives he tortured the entire tribe to death. Those who didn’t die were shipped of to spain for slavery. They were even used to test the sharpness of knives.
