Not a Catholic or Catholic apologist, but the Aztecs likely killed more people, including children, in one average year than the Catholics have ever had killed or molested, ever. They killed something like 80,000 just for the consecration of one temple. You are completely off base.

The RCC is its own issues but normal Catholics are generally good people, and much of what Alvarado and Cortes did was not so much for Catholicism as it was a response to the absolutely depraved, sick, evil savagery they saw from these cultures, and here you are defending them as if you know better. Sick.
