That THEY brought leprosy to Hawai'i? Just like they brought all of their other filthy plagues to 'The New World': christianity, small pox, influenza, measles, racism, etc. The Europeans were walking piles of pestilence and they spread their vile diseases across two continents, the Pacific islands and the land down under. With alll their diseases and outright murder it's a wonder that any indigenous people were even left after these various forms of GENOCIDE.

I guess they weren't smarter enough at that time to realize what they bring with them.
Now, we do know all the deceases and toxic way of living they bring to our native people.
I'm in no way a catholic person, not even close to judeo-christian religion, but I do admire and respect "father" Demien.

Please excuse my terrible redaction, english is not my native language.

Yes the new world was a virtual paradise before ebil old whitey came around There were no diseases, war, famine, racism hate, etc. They were all angelic children before the Euros came

What are they doing? Why do they come here?
Some kind of instinct, memory, what they used to do.
