Fischer: Native Americans morally disqualified

From Right Wing Watch:

Bryan Fischer is back with another history lesson for us all - this one on how the Native Americans deserved to lose control of North America because "the superstition, savagery and sexual immorality" made them "morally disqualified from sovereign control of American soil."

You see, there are three ways that control over land is established: settlement, purchase, and conquest.  And in the case of Native Americans, it turns out that they were just like the Canaanites who were so immoral that God decided that "the slop bucket was full, and it was time to empty it out" and so he tasked Israel with being the "custodian to empty the bucket and start over."

And in North America, that task fell to the Europeans ... and Fischer notes that "many of the tribal reservations today remain mired in poverty and alcoholism" because they refuse to embrace Christianity, as demonstrated by the Native American invocation at the Tucson memorial:

H/T Kootenai Conservative

I think DFO instituted some kind of Bryan Fischer topic ban because some of you get a little out of control when he posted some of Fischer's opinions. So I front page this with some hesitation. Can we discuss this topic without going off into rants about Mr. Fischer's sanity, morals or family life?
I'd like to think we can.

I'd like to know if you think Fischer's opinions about Native Americans are more wide spread than we know?
