Do You Think Christopher Columbus Is A Hero?

Answer Question

7 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    What did he do to be considered a hero? Maybe to Spain, as he claimed his discovery for that countries Queen, but remember that he was paid for this discovery, by Queen Isabella, even though he had not completed his original quest which was to find a shorter trade  passage from Spain to India. No, he can not be considered a "Hero".

        I think Christopher Columbus is a hero to some people and a villain to other people. It matters on what you believe not what other people believe.

        This is all true. It's the truth and the truth can sometimes be horrible. That's life!

        I think that he did a great deal of good for the world, in discovering, and finding new foods and taking them back to his homeland. He is in a sense a hero.

        Are you kidding? HE IS HORRiBLE! He killed people! He didn't even discover America, the Chinese and the Native Americans found it first, he just got the credit. He didn't even believe he found a new world, he convinced himself that he found the indies! He's a terrible person that doesn't deserve to have a holiday.

          Yes he is a hero and a villain he was the first one to bring it to people and he wasnt trying to find the New world he was trying to find a faster way to get Asia.He's a villain because he killed all of those people and the native Americas they did not anything so that why he both a hero and a villain.
