Well the Spanish priests primarily believed that they had to convert the native population, to save their souls and bring them to God. Some did this very aggressively and if a native lapsed into his original beliefs he/she was tortured and many times executed as a heretic. But not all priests acted this way. Most were humane men and tried to protect the natives from the abuses of the Spanish overlords.
