The Christian religion had its beginnings in Judea and Syria, and spread outward from there. It reached the indigenous peoples of the New World at much the same time that it reached the peoples of the Far East, thanks mainly to the Spanish and Portuguese voyages of discovery. It reached Australia and the Pacific later still. Just as the Bible doesn’t mention America, it doesn’t mention Japan, either. Or New Zealand, or Fiji …
 
Could be a moral reason to explain why God deprive the original american civilizations of the influence of the Abrahamic Religions?

Is this question just beyond human reason?

Is any reference to the history of America mentioned in the Bible? Do you think there is not enough archaeological and historiographical evidence against the Book of Mormon?

In a passage from the New Testament I read that Paul answers the question: Why should we preach the gospel to all the peoples of the world if the knowledge of the gospel has already reached the ends of the earth?..

Thanks
Gee, it’s almost as if the Abrahamic religions were invented and propagated by the people of the Middle East, whereas native Americans (and for that matter, the rest of the world) created their own set of gods… 😉

Not even Wales!
