Missionaries are great. How can you not like the promotion of God?
LOVE the promotion of Allah! Allah Akbar!

Stop fabricating these lying spins.
You’ve had several people tell you on this thread that
— many missionaries proselytize by example
— for many, it’s about the commandment to perform charity, not about winning souls
Which specific point above was incorrect/lying?
For example - these are the same:
All missionaries proselytize in some way - words, deeds, etc.
many missionaries proselytize by example
Way to ignore “ for many, it’s about the commandment to perform charity, not about winning souls”
You can’t even lie competently.
That also falls under "deeds".![]()
It’s not proselytizing though. That’s the whole point you’re trying to make.
WTF is wrong with you?
Sure it is. "Spread the gospel with deeds".
Charity and proselytizing are very different. When you volunteer at a soup kitchen or nursing home are you trying to spread atheism? No? Of course you aren’t. There you go.
You just don’t like the charity angle because it destroys your whole argument. Oops.
“Spreading the gospel with deeds” (quote from earlier) is proselytizing.
Charity =\= proselytizing
Don’t be ridiculous. You look uneducated.
You have to look at the motivations. Why are they providing charity? To “share the love of Jesus” or “share the gospel with deeds”.

I understand this. However it's 2022 time to realize that there is not just one belief system. Just like Mormons or Jehovah's Witnesses knocking on doors. No thank you. Underprivileged people.ecan have the assistance they need without being preached at. On a lot of these missions building schools, working on wells etc. are considered secondary to the real purpose: leading people to God. Whether that is what they believe or not.
Exactly. Can you imagine if organized groups of privileged youth from wealthy Arab nations descended onto poor or middle-class American neighborhoods to spread the word of Allah in exchange for offering assistance to those who have less financial means? It doesn't matter what you who live in those communities want because....this is what Allah wanted.
