[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]

You couldn't be more wrong. Christian missionaries shouldn't be destroying "local practices, languages". They're trying to spread the good new of Jesus Christ, and if they're doing more than that, then shame on them. But don't dismiss all missionaries because of a few bad apples.[/quote]

People are perfectly capable of finding God (whatever that means to them) without the help of judgmental fundie missionary tourists.  I grew up in the southern baptist cult. Even as a teen, I knew it was messed up.  I became a hospice chaplain because I wanted to help people transition in peace, not convert them to my way of thinking.  [/quote]
