[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So why [u]shouldn't[/u] missionaries be banned?

Couldn't their charity work continue via secular organizations? 
[/quote]

It’s 2021, there are plenty of secular international aid organizations.

Why do we need missionaries? Couldn’t the “love spreading” happen via the secular orgs? 
[/quote]

And crickets.

No rational explanation for why we need missionaries in 2021. We have secular aid orgs that can fill the need.

Oh my, it looks like nobody wants to engage with a bigot whose idea of discourse is to spew hate and ignore what anybody else says. Who could have predicted that?[/quote]

You are confusing posters.

It’s a very simple question. Why do we need missionaries?

Why shouldn’t they be banned?

There are secular groups providing aid. Couldn’t people easily “spread love” through those organizations?

Lol: I read this as the PP admitting that they, themselves, are a bigot, spewing hate and ignoring what everyone else says, and finally accepting that nobody wants to engage with that.

It seems odd to me that some people use their own religious beliefs or “the Bible” to justify pretty much anything they want to do — without recognizing that their own personal convictions should not govern or influence anyone other than themselves.  I wonder how many of these evangelicals have genuinely allowed others to proselytize to them? [/quote]

DP. People proselytize me all the time. For some reason there's some Jehovah's Witnesses who send me personal letters every couple of months. I read them but I'm not converting and it seems crazy to make that illegal. [/quote]

Exactly.  It happens in the U.S., overseas, everywhere . . . because THE BIBLE SAYS TO DO IT!  If you are Christian, the Bible instructs you to teach others about God and Jesus.  It says to spread it to all nations, tribes, languages.  If anybody read the Bible, they'd get it.  Many posters here remind me of something Jesus said - "they have ears, but cannot hear."[/quote]
