Why are South Americans so big on idolatry?
Catholicism themselves are huge on idolatry but South Americans take it to a whole nother level
I never see Mexicans without murals of Jesus and pictures of Jesus and marry hanging in their car
All the Mexicans near me have like 5 or 6 statues in their lawns and they bow down to them
What is with you spics?
mexicans =! south americans

Choose one dumbass.

They all look the same to me sorry
They are still practicing Catholicism like it was practiced several hundred years ago.

consequences of being under catholic church rule for 500 years
Indigenous idolatry+Roman Catholic belief is what helped pacify Mexico and some South American countries.
One of the reasons the Spaniards never instituted large scale genocide in their New World colonies like the British did

I know, I grew up Catholic and the white Catholics at church might kneel for half a second to a statue but Mexicans would kneel for half a minute, and kiss the statues for some reason

it's a great business to keep people ignorant.
>>58892780
Lots of empty eyes in that picture.

Why do some americans seem to love perpetuating the stereotype that they're dumb and ignorant?
>>58892780
At least they idolatry the death instead to be afraid all their lives, sound good to me
I come from a conservative catholic family in south Mexico. And I get all confused when euphoric Mexican atheists tell me about the religion I've been raised all my life.
Catholic morals made my family a strong family, we donate a shit ton of money to hospitals, we participate in charity, we overcome all of our struggles.
My whole family including the youngest generation are hardcore Catholics, and that's OK. we are preserving our own identity and making our lives and other's better.

>Why are South Americans so big on idolatry?
Because they were pagans, just like we were before christians cucked us. All religious festivites, saints and virgins can be traced back to some god, cult place or pagan tradition.
These are Native Americans from Spanish America, OP.
Catholics are becoming minority in Brazil.

Isn't Mexico culturally similar to South America? Genuine question.
>>58893882
Just as much as Japan, China and Thailand.
We have more things in common than differences, but there are huge social differences that may put us on cultural shock when we travel between countries.

Stupid assumption
