Columbus threatened the Indians that he would steal the moon

in #story6 years ago

Columbus threatened the Indians that he would steal the moon from them, if they did not give him enough food and supplies to keep his crew alive,
The Indians did not believe then that this great pirate is able to carry out his threat,
Astronomers who accompanied Columbus had told him that a complete eclipse would happen in a few days,
When the moon was already absent, the poor Indians came to Columbus to return to them, having pledged to carry out all his orders literally,
The next night the moon came back in full, Columbus returned them with all modesty,
From that incident, the Red Indians won their ceremonial rituals by the moon, but they lost a continent full of their giant riches.
Says the scientist and philosopher Ibn_rashid: "Trade in religions is a popular trade in societies where ignorance is widespread, if you want to control the ignorant, you have to envelop all false in a religious envelope,
Unfortunately, the followers of Columbus still live and we are still red Indians!
