They are free to give aid to whomever they please. That said, it doesn't make what they did right in anyway shape or form. In the end, they are true hipocrates. :(

Oh my dear God. I agree entirely with what Steak said.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

I'm torn between feeling "It's their food, they can choose to give or not give it to whoever they want", and disgust at how they tried to force their religion on the people.

Well...they must not have confidence that their religion is any good if they have to bribe people to convert...:p

That is pathetic, I thought the Catholic Church had grown beyond trying to enforce membership centuries ago.  o'course when you think about it, Catholics are the only Christian religion to blame the Jews as a race for the death of Christ.  So, I guess in that context, this is right in line.  Doesn't make it right though.  They should be ashamed and kicked out of everything in the most shameful and showiest way possible.

*is aghast*

However, I doubt this represents the majority of missionaries in general (all religions).

You know, Lib, not all Catholics blame the entire religion of Judaism for the death of Christ. In fact, it is a very small minority, which would be know as "idiots".

And aren't nuns supposed to take a vow of charity or something?

If you think all Catholics behave like this, then I feel sorry for you...:rolleyes:  And if "they" refers to these "missionaries", then I agree with you. I'm just hoping "they" doesn't refer to the Church in general.

EDIT: actually,  Grey Wolf says it nicely as well.:p

'They' does refer to the nuns.

There are whole sects of Catholocism(primarily those that don't adhere to Vatican 2) that pin Christ's death on the Jews as a whole.  Of course, I don't exactly get the praying to the Holy Mother thing too.  I mean, yes, she above all other women was blessed to be the mother of Christ, but she was still a mortal woman with all the foibles that insinuates and, while deserving of honor, is not prayer worthy.  Prayers should be directed wholy and singly toward God.

I would love for a Catholic to give us a quick lesson in their faith.

They're free to do as they like. Personally, I think they're bastards, but its their choice I guess.

You know, I never really understood what's so inaccurate about blaming the Jews for the crucifixion of Yeshua (aka Jesus), Himself a Jew. It's an internal matter, for pete's sake. The rabble even said - and I paraphrase - "May  his blood be upon our heads."

That said, Yeshua said that "No man takes My life from Me; I lay it down of My own will."

So, those who purport to follow Him shouldn't "blame" anyone, unless they blame the whole of a creation turned sinful. And those who don't believe in Him - what's it matter to them, anyway?

So that's why I never understood that whole blame game. :rolleyes:

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
