I was just trying to point out what you just did--that there are non-force tactics that are not OK to use on people who don't have the wherewithal to hold their own. I can agree with that idea, but I don't think the adults in the third world are equivilent to children in this case. If they ever where even partially (before they had any contact with western ideas and technology) they are not now IMO. Also I don't think most missionary work is fraud or includes drugging people to take advantage of them. Nor is it done with evil intent. So I don't think missionary activity today is "not OK" in general. Tim
