We know the common pattern lds are using even now in Africa is to send in a humanitarian couple to do work of that nature -- so it opens a door for their mission, missionaries, stakes, branches and mission presidents of a district to follow. (IOW, the humanitarian work rarely stands on its own as the lone motivation...now while the Mormons aren't alone in often having hidden motivations re: humanitarian work, it just seems like the Lds pattern in Africa is too "coincidental" for it to be anything but a structured way of how to get the governments to approve of their presence and expansion in that country)
Nice editorial. Stupid on its face but for you nice.
