Exploring the rationale behind European Christians' authority over indigenous people in the Americas, arguing for moral superiority and guiding rather than enslaving based on alleged failure to uphold natural law. The chapter delves into a critique of Spanish colonialism, justification for just war against Amerindians, and the evaluation of radical views by Poulevada and Cipulevada at Valo de Lid in 1550.
