“But if those two young people went to Haiti because they felt pressure to do so because of her parent’s position in the government and in the organization...that is something their family will have to live with.”

tragic when so many Americans need help so desperately.

We have different views of Christian faith, I’m glad missionaries take on the Christian duty and frequently dangerous work, history and the world would be very different without their courage and sacrifice.

Potentially losing your life seems anything but “cheap” virtue signaling.

You have no concept of how missions work, and the hearts of missionaries. People who don’t get it don’t need to be spouting off; they’re embarrassing themselves.

So? Evangelize in the West where Christianity is dying the fastest.

Want to save black souls? Go evangelize to the Somali Muslims that Bush and Obama imported here. There's Somali neighborhoods all over the United States.

At least you'll have a better chance of surviving.

I don't need to "know the hearts of missionaries" to know that taking my smoking hot young white wife over to Haiti during a cannibal revolution isn't going to end well.

And all that great cigar leaf it grows.

They were doing God’s work.

Anyone wonder if God gives performance reviews, and if so, would they be on stone tablets?

[SauronOfMordor]

During the Haitian revolt, they killed every white person in Haiti.

Men, women, and children.

They have been damned ever since.

Prayers up.

Maybe they should be.

But I guess they’re too busy delivering aid to Hamas in Gaza.

biden will do what he’s bribed to do.

“It was apparently a religious ministry, and I respect that.”

Should have had a different line of work.

“I apologize for my cynicism.”

Don’t, you are much too benevolent.

My nephew is having a destination wedding next month in the Dominican Republic, I won’t be there and I advised my sister to do the same.

Not their fathers' and/or their mothers' problem, rather that of the missions supra-church project and the sponsoring assembly that organized the visit to Haiti, as well as the victims themselves who were well able to make their own risk management decisions.

At least the victims had not yet been eaten.

As I said, you have no concept of missions.

You don’t just decide where you’re going; you go when God leads you to go. And you don’t go where you have “a better chance of surviving”; you go where God leads you to go.

Your have to have a different foundation in order to understand. Maybe some day you will; it’s not your fault.

[Drew68]

You don’t just decide where you’re going; you go when God leads you to go.

Well, I hope I haven't angered God so much that he leads me and my hot babe wife to Haiti.

[Sequoyah101]

There is nothing and nobody in Haiti worth saving. They screwed up and let their ideologies run away with them. God may protect you but you gotta give him some help.
