Hi,, help me please .

Back in the 15th century in Nuremberg, lived a family with eighteen children. Eighteen!
Despite their seemingly hopeless financial condition, two of them had a dream. They both wanted to pursue their talent for art, but they knew very well that their father would not be able to send either of them to Nuremberg to study at the Academy.
After many long discussions the two boys, Albert and Albrecht, finally worked out a pact. They would toss a coin. The loser would go down into the nearby mines and with his earnings, support his brother while the winner would attend the Academy. And, when that brother who won the toss completed his studies, in four years, he would support the other brother at the Academy, either with sales of his art work or, if necessary, also by labouring in the mines.
They tossed a coin on a Sunday morning after church. Albrecht Durer won the toss and went off to the Academy. Albert went down into the dangerous mines and for the next four years financed his brother, whose works at the Academy were almost an immediate sensation. Albrecht’s etchings, his wood cuts and his oils were far better than most of his professors. And by the time he graduated, he was beginning to earn a considerable sum for his commissioned works.
When the young artist returned to his village, the Durer family held a festive dinner at their lawn to celebrate Albrecht’s triumphant homecoming. After a long and memorable meal, punctuated with music and laughter, Albrecht rose from his honoured position at the head of the table to drink a toast to his beloved brother for the years of sacrifice that had enabled him to fulfil his ambition. His closing words were, “And now, Albert, blessed brother of mine, now it is your turn. Now, you can go to Nuremberg to pursue your dream, and I’ll take care of you.”
All heads turned in eager expectation to the far end of the table where Albert sat, tears streaming down his pale face, shaking his lowered head from side to side while he sobbed and repeated, over and over, “No…..no…….no……no…….”
Finally, Albert rose and wiped the tears from his cheeks. He glanced down the long table at the face he loved, and then holding his hands close to his right cheek, he said softly, “No brother I cannot go to Nuremberg. It is too late for me. Look…. Look what 4 years in the mines have done to my hands! The bones in every finger have been smashed atleast once and lately I have been suffering from arthritis so badly in my right hand that \I cannot even hold a glass to return your toast, much less make delicate lines on parchment or canvas with a pen or a brush. No, brother …… for me it is too late”
To pay homage to Albert for all that he had sacrificed, Albrecht Durer painstakingly drew his brother’s abused hands with palms together and thin fingers stretched skywards. He called his powerful drawings simply ‘hands’, but more than 450 years later the entire world almost immediately opened their hearts to his great masterpiece and renamed his tribute of love, ‘The Praying hands’.

Based on the excerpt, how did trade between the European colonizers and
indigenous peoples support the European goal of religious conversion?
First, if it be unlawful: it must be so, either in respect of the
law of God, or in regard to the laws of man. If in respect of
Gods law, (considering our primary end is to plant religion,
our secondary and subalternate ends are for the honor and
profit of our nation) I demand a resolution of this plain
question: whether it be not a determined truth, that the
Gospel should be preached, to all the world ... [in] one of
these three ways. ...
The third belongs to us, who by way of merchandizing and
trade, do buy of them the pearls of the earth, and sell to
them the pearls of heaven, which action, if it be unlawful, it
must proceed from one of these three grounds, either
because we come to them, or trade with them, or tarry and
dwell and possess part of their country against them.

Virginia," 1610

Dark spruce forest frowned on either side the frozen waterway. The trees had been stripped
by a recent wind of their white covering of frost, and they seemed to lean towards each
other, black and ominous, in the fading light. A vast silence reigned over the land. The land
itself was desolation, lifeless, without movement, so lone and cold that the spirit of it was not
even that of sadness. There was a hint in it of laughter, but of a laughter more terrible than
any sadness-a laughter that was mirthless as the smile of the sphinx, a laughter cold as
the frost and partaking of the grimness of infallibility. It was the masterful and
incommunicable wisdom of eternity laughing at the futility of life and the effort of life. It was
the Wild, the savage, frozen-hearted Northland Wild
