I don't know who'd admire a person like Columbus, but considering the crual fate he survived, no wonder he was as wretched as he was is all i'm saying. I wouldn't be justifying any of his actions. If he enjoyed it, then let the hell actually exist to burn this bastard for eternity, but if he didn't, penitentiary afterlife existence is not necessary, as the life itself was a penalty enough in his case.
the world is a cruel place, let's enjoy our luxury of being able to be nice and good, and let's share it with others.
