Genesis

Our lifestyle and forms of government, justice, economic and social systems are the best for every country. This declarative is the basis for most of the colonization attempts by the United States of America and European countries.

The seizure of land from indigenous peoples in various parts on the globe and subsequent attempts to thrust the "Western World View" and all its vagaries upon other non-western countries has proven to be a great sin.

Why use the concept of sin? Sin exposes a moral aspect that must be understood when we try to force ourselves and our ways of life upon others whom have never ask to join our world views. Another reason to use the sin concept is Western man kind presumes that all the countries of the world should be "Democratic" forms of government.
This notion is simply wrong. History has shown attempts to impose western customs and world views upon other cultures and societies always have begun or ended in war.

Wars to fight off the savages convert the heathens or slay the infidels and remove regimes have been the guise chosen. However, the real underling motivations are temporal. Gold, property, natural resources, forced labor and avarice of every form are the real motives for colonizing the heathens.
