[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I am from South East Asia and was born into one of the eastern religions. It absolutely enrages me to see western Christians come to third-world countries to convert us, trying to destroy our local practices, languages because they think they know better than us. The absolute disdain they have towards us brown people is disgusting. I think they should just be banned by all governments. Want to do humanitarian work - enroll with non-religious AID organizations. Keep your bible and your prejudice to yourself.[/quote]

Agree 100000%. It is the worst form of conceit and narcissism. Missionary work rarely has anything to do with actually helping the local populations. On behalf of my fellow Americans, I apologize, as they likely never will apologize for the atrocities that they have committed. [/quote]

Absolute nonsense. Missionaries from various denominations provide education, medical care, water, and numerous other things to people in mission counties. And as for just sending money, money is the easiest thing for corrupt regimes to steal and the least likely to form bonds between people. Hands-on missionary work helping people who have nothing and are treated as disposable by their own societies is life changing, both for the giver and the receiver. [/quote]
