Missionaries Refuse to Leave Native Tribes Alone During Pandemic

(Father) Dave

The Prime Directive (also known as "Starfleet General Order 1", "General Order 1", and the "non-interference directive") from the Book of Roddenberry- reads thus:

As the right of each sentient species to live in accordance with its normal cultural evolution is considered sacred, no Starfleet personnel may interfere with the normal and healthy development of alien life and culture. Such interference includes introducing superior knowledge, strength, or technology to a world whose society is incapable of handling such advantages wisely. Starfleet personnel may not violate this Prime Directive, even to save their lives and/or their ship, unless they are acting to right an earlier violation or an accidental contamination of said culture. This directive takes precedence over any and all other considerations, and carries with it the highest moral obligation.

There is an old saying that one misguided person can drop a rock in a well that 100 wise men can't take out. Please leave these indigenous people alone. If it isn't Covid, it could be another virus or bacteria. Remember the mistakes of the past...whole tribes wiped out by measles, mumps and such by "helpful " people.... blankets with smallpox...foods that caused soaring rise in diabetes, thyroid disease, gallbladder disease and more to people that were healthy only a few decades prior.... This type of interference is what has made "missionary" a bad word in many cultures. Please leave them alone so they can survive.

I love on the US. I was born with rights and now that I'm an adult, I have even more rights. These rights as I understand them, are actually priviledges since most countries in this world do not have the rights that I have as laid down by our governing bodies. These tights are also NOT moral obligations, but rights that were applied to the way I live my life. (I have the right to drive a motor vehicle. I have the right to vote for governing officials and on governing issues. I have the right to bear arms, even though I choose not to. I jave the right to protect myself and anything or anyone in my household. I have many more rights, but y'all get the idea.)

Other countries do not allow their citizens all these rights. Other countries do not allow their citizens many of these rights. Missionaries, whether Christian or any other religious belief system, need to follow the laws of the countries where they are evangelizing. If the country says to leave our people alone, that is what the missionaries need to do. Chrisitanity is not the only doctrine that has missionaries. But, Christians seem to be the only ones y'all are ragging on. Let's for a moment come together and object to ALL missionaries destroying lives by traveling to other countries and breaking their laws.

I'm writing With Respect To The Missionary-Post:[ Keeping, Within My Belief That in Giving My Perspective, I Must, Give It Within The Moral Code Of Humanity As Not Too Impinge On The Rights And Beliefs Of Others].

First, I Respect The Efforts Of The " Missionaries", In Their Continued Effort Of Religious-Morale-Duty ,To Reach-Out To The Indigenous-People Based On Their-[ Missionaries]-Belief, That Every Human, Must Be Given The " Good-News" New Testament Message Of Saving Grace, For The Remission Of Any ill-Wills [ Sins/Errors] : " In Order, For The Indigenous Women,Men And Children ,Have A Chance At Becoming A Paradise-Citizen". For, The Missionaries, Are Truely Walking By Faith And Not By [A]. Statistics; [ B]. Facts ; Human-Reasoning Or Common-Sense And Against All Potential Accusations Of Intent.

Secondly, I Respect The Expressions Reflected In Said " Blog-Post". There's Potential,For The Realization Of The Manifestation Of Servere Devastation Of The Indigenous -People [ Of, Whom The Missionaries,Are Trying Too Assist In Their State Of Spirituality. The Coronovirus Pandemic, Is A Real Threat Too Humanity Across The Totality Of The Crust Of This Earth.

Surely, The " Writer" Of The " Blog Post" Is One That Believes In " Human-Rights" ...As Well As... " Human-Equality- With Respect ,Too The Health And Life, Of The Indigenous People".

Thirdly, I Respect The Indingeous Peoples Choice -- To Not, Want To Be Manipulated In Their Centuries Old Customs ,Worships And/ Or Beliefs Systems. Yes, I'm Of The Perspective, That The Endeavors, Of The Missionaries, Would Subltely Impinge On The "Rights", " Beliefs", "Worship" And Way Of Life.

Thus, The Indingeous-People, Had The Right To Bare-Arms.

As, You've Probally Come To Understand, That All Three Aforementioned Choices And Consequences ; Every Action And Reactions And/Or Belief :

" For The Benefit Of The All" Inaccordance With Each One's Internal "Heart Of Hearts" And Being Of Beings" Temple.

I, Enjoyed The Blog-Post !

Sincerely And Respectfully

Min. William Wise Murray, IV.

I think it is disgusting arrogance on their part, there has been so much damage done by those who claim moral or cultural superioty. How many people have been wiped out. They live a peaceful ,non-violent lifestyle, we can see how well that worked out for us. Remember Jim Jones, all the people Catholics murdered, the list could go on. Leave them alone!!! The sin is imposing yourself on what God has made. It makes me so sad to read this.

Gwendolyn Olympia Garrett

I agree, Rev. Robin Barbara Werner

God does not protect the flagrantly stupid.

More North American Indians died of diseases then all the bullets ever fired at them. Consider that if they died off from this virus then their land can be grab, cut down and planted with valuable crops. Also you have the question of gold and oil.

TheRese Bourdeau

TRUTHFUL HISTORY HAS PROVEN THERE IS NOT A CONTINENT ON OUR PLANET THAT WAS NOT ASSULTED BY MISSIONARIES AND THEY BROUGHT GERMS & GENOCIDE WITH THEIR OFTEN  FORCED CHOICE OF "CONVERSION OR DEATH". 

Please send these innocent, beautiful people, and the rest the 🌏, light and hope Universe and protect them from these diety propaganda hunters! 

(And if you are interested in the REAL accounting look up Jared Diamonds book & later dicumentary "Guns, Germs & Steel".)

Carla Ruth Robinson

I'm sorry, but volleys of arrows are the least these "Christians" deserve. Nowhere in the Bible does Jesus say we should put others in danger, even to give them the Gospel. They are putting their self-glorification over love for others, and that is the worst of sins.

Diana Heineck

That we have the arrogance to think we can discern who is and who is not "Welcomed" is not a sign that there is any validity to such statements only proof of how low vibrating the species that would even consider this as a topic within our capacity.

I had an NDE and now I never worry, need to discuss or question.

Brenten Stevens

Ughhhhh here we have ignorant people so absorbed in their chosen faith to think they have a right to shove it down others throats . Keep your religion within your own community ... I was once a missionary out of East Texas we were in the South American including southern Mexico . I get so angry watching these people change their attitude in these tribes suddenly they were sales people . Here have some food and clothing but you must accept our god obver your own . After 3+ years of this toying with indigenous native peoples I turned on leadership . It cost me they sent me packing and I left them but returned to several tribal leaders to rebuke these evangelical miss leading groups . Told them to ignore their lies and keep your belief in tact . If a group of indigenous tribes have their own beliefs ( no violence against others only) they should be left alone . Their faith has worked for hundreds and in several tribes thousands of years . We should never ever spew from our mouths anything against their chosen faith . If you choose to live everyday helping them with whatever you can and should they ask about my faith I will share my beliefs but not expect to convert them for the sake of leaving them alone concerning their faith . As with America’s many many different faiths we still live together , work together , feel pain together ,loss , fear, love . As for bringing in a virus to a indigenous Tribe shame on you your killing everyone for your selfish ignorant ideals . Stay away period ....if you quarantine for a good month prior to contact with them I do mean stay away from anyone then proceed with caution but still keep your faith to yourself .

Mark Shannon Parkhurst

Indigenous tribes have been surviving on their own for hundreds and hundreds of years. It's written in the book of Lamentations, the Lilies of the fields are on their own and they're beautiful the animals they have everything they need they survived. If you replace the knowledge that they have of surviving then they get dependent on you. Now we have a bunch of filthy dirty sick individuals who are not cautious enough kamuning and helping them get their nature.

Theresa Graveline Leduc

LEAVE THEM ALONE!!! They have their own religion, they don’t need yours!!! Another excuse for mass Annihilation of indigenous peoples. Get off your high horse and mind your own business. They are not asking you to come! Infect one and you have a MURDER Sentence on your hands. I know from experience, my indigenous family members were murdered the same way, infected with a virus they had no immunity towards!!! 😡🤬🥵😡

“God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”” ‭‭John‬ ‭4:24‬ ‭NRSV‬‬ https://www.bible.com/2016/jhn.4.24.nrsv

Let us not seek glory through our own merit. Let us lead by example and love our neighbor. It is the spiritual demonstration, not the physical one, that will lead people to God. Jesus died for us so we wouldn’t have to risk the lives of one another.

Carl Bernard Elfstrom

I wish missionaries would go to Hell with that damn gospel! Only the fools who go looking for it want to hear about it. Those who get hurt by preaching it to those who don't seek it , only get what they deserve. When they ask me if I know Jesus l tell them we met in passing once, and thank the Goddess that's all it was. If they persist, I ask them if they've met the horned God, referring to the stainless steel horned God ring on my middle finger (sometimes raised, but usually with a clenched fist). So far, it hasn't had to go beyond that.

It's always the Christians who go to beautiful, pristine and faraway places populated by unique indigenous peoples- and then kill them.

Mya-Lia Sharizyn

Their teaching about being humble to their god is written for two reasons that are obvious to me. The first is so they'll consciously act continuously submissive to the biblical writings and whatever their churches tell them. The second is to use their obvious humble-before-god ways as a trick to gain the favor of whoever they're attempting to convince and convert by how they speak, dress, move, obey, etc....Claiming it all to be evidence of the holy spirit being present in them, thereby enabling works of god to be performed thru them. When anything is going on in the lives of the unconverted, they are right there to point out that it's not in harmony with "the word", and that if they accepted "the word" as truth, they wouldn't have those issues any longer because the word is god and holds that kind of power. That, in a nut shell, is the BS inside the nutshell. I'd much prefer to have the original walnut, almond, pistachio, macadamia, coconut, and any and every OTHER kind of nut in that nutshell, but instead, they are removing the natural, original delicious food and replacing it with what they call spiritual food to live by, and in doing so are screwing up the minds, hearts, and lives of many. The whole world is LYING in the power of the wicked one - literally!!

My experience has been that many Christians are narrow minded fanatics. They only hear what they want to hear, They should leave these people alone. God will take care of them. And don't eat the missionaries they are probably anti-vaxxers.

Douglas Robert Spindler

Christians are spreading covid faster than any other group. It's tragic that so many Christians believe God is more powerful that viruses and bacteria. God has only been around for 2,000 years, where viruses and bacteria have been here for 3.5 billion years. Sad that Christians think spreading the word of God and covid is more important than someone else's life that's been doing fine for thousands of years without God.

Clay Serenbetz

This is a continuation of the damage that Christian missionaries have done around the world for centuries. Another example of their dangers is the damage done to native Hawaiians starting in 1778 when Captain Cook introduced Christian's to Hawaiian culture. The missionaries arrived with their diseases and self-righteousness and nearly wiped out the Hawaiian people and their culture.

Alvin Rollins

We live in such an insane world now. It's not the indigenous tribes that need salvation it's the religious idiots that are in need of salvation. These so called Christians are violating one of the Ten Commandments "Tho shall not comment murder" because that's exactly what they're doing is committing murder by going there. These so called Christians are the ones in danger of their souls being condemned to hell for this murderous act. Just recently I heard someone say that Jesus never closed his church so they're not closing theirs. I've got news for all of these so called Christians Jesus didn't have a church here on earth. The church is in your heart (mind). So if you have a heart just stay away from each other and let death pass. Stop passing this virus and saying that you're doing this in the name of one you truly do not know "Jesus" . To be a Christian means to be Christ like. And this behavior is definitely not Christ like behavior.

The Right Reverend D. Batch

I wouldn't think God would condemn these People to Hell. I think they would be thought of as being in the same group as someone who is profoundly Mentally Challenged who is unable to understand. Look what was done to Native Americans by introducing Smallpox and other Old World Diseases. I would leave them alone.

Paul J. Fumero

Christian Missionaries are the most insane people I've heard of. These tribes have lived and survived without their religious christian CRAP! Why put them at risk of COVID-19 infection? We are already Immortal by our creation and are not in need of any saving. Can't save what can't be lost fools.
