Henry,

There are a few other issues. Questioning the sainthood of Christopher 
Columbus in "Discovering" the "New World" is always fodder for the charge of 
"presentism", as well as any assertion that the Native Americans were worthy 
human beings who were treated shamefully by those gods, The Founding 
Fathers.
