You might want to re-think your sentence structure here, since it rather implies that the Conquistadors were native cultures destroyed by Christians.
But the point remains that entire native cultures were destroyed during the colonial expansion by Christians and entire populations were reduced to the demoralised subcultures we see today. Australia at least has offered a public apology to the Aborigines.
You make that sound like a bad thing. The love of Jesus caused missionaries to condemn the violence done by their own people to the natives.
Rather. The Crusades were all around a failure, but that's probably the low point.
