Why do you think the king of Spain commanded catholic priest to teach native Americans about Christianity?
There are two possible reasons ( others may exist as well ) for Spain's attempts to Christianize the Native Americans in the New World. One reason was the sincere belief that by doing so, they were helping these Native Tribes to discover God and thus establish a relationship with their Creator. This could have been a sincere goal. The other reason would be to bring the Native Americans into the "fold" of Catholic Spain, and thus have a measure of commonality among the two peoples. It must be remembered that "religion" was a stronger force in the colonail days of Spain then perhaps it is now.
What caused millions of Native Americans to die after the Europeans came?
Any people isolated unto themselves will not have ordinary immunities common in other peoples from other countries. So, Europeans exposed Native Americans to viruses and bacteria common to that time. A common cold could override immune systems if a people had never been exposed to that virus before.
