[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about all the (purportedly) non-religious missionaries acting under the activist label who travel throughout the world promoting and expanding various social movements that go against traditional values in many societies?  Should they be banned?  Or is what they do OK because people in the developed world think they are right and the traditional values they oppose are outmoded?  How is that not cultural imperialism?[/quote]

True- [b]I’m sure all the people spewing hate towards missionaries for not respecting traditional cultures are absolutely fine with the organizations that go to these cultures to promote/push family planning.[/b][/quote]

You have something against family planning?[/quote]

I have something against hypocrites that criticize Christians missionaries for disrespecting local culture’s while praising others for doing the same when it aligns with their values.[/quote]

I think you're against family planning.  Thank goodness there are organizations that will provide these urgently needed services. And no sermon about Jesus gets rammed down their throats at the same time.[/quote]

I promise you that most missionaries believe  just as strongly that [b]these people are urgently in need of god [/b]as you believe they are in need of having the benefits of family planning rammed down their throat.[/quote]

Um.. when you say "god," which god?  Is it your god that you're going to ram down their throats?  Seems like Religious imperialism to me.  Why not respect their local cultures and traditions? [/quote]
