The guys wasn't right in the head. Absolutely. Surely he had money, To pay for the trip and bribing fisherman to preach? I mean, there are people, reasonable persons believing in all kinds of gods, and crazies come from all sides. Why wasn't he screened? Oh India and American with money.

He didn't have to have money, he could have been on a church-sponsored mission. One of my nieces went on a mission to Vienna with her husband and kids. Their church set them up and paid their fares, along with donations from anybody but me.

Perhaps they don't want to go to hell so kill all intruders before they can have religion pushed on them.

Remember the story of the Native American chief and the missionary?

"If we hadn't heard of Jesus would we go to hell?"

"No."

"Then why did you tell us?"

Cypher44:
Quote:The name of the missionary was John Allen Chau,

Chau was "martyred," said Mat Staver, founder, and chairman of Covenant Journey, a Christian ministry that introduces college-age students to Israel through an immersion program.

John Allen Chau was martyred for idiocy, he'll never live that down in Heaven.

In a letter written to his parents John writes:

Brian and Mary and Mom and Dad,

You guys might think I'm crazy in all this but I think it's worth it to declare Jesus to these people, please do not be angry at them or at them if I get myself killed. Rather, please live your lives in obedience to whatever he has called you to and I'll see you again when you pass through the veil. This is not a pointless thing - the eternal lives of this tribe is at hand and I can't wait to see them around the throne of God worshiping in their own language as Revelations 7:9-10 states.

I love you all and I pray none of you love anything in this world more than Jesus Christ.

Soli Deo Gloria,

John Chau

This letter is dated 16/11/18, which is one day after he was taken to the island.

I for one never feared eternal hell, all that suffering and pain burning and crying would eventually grow on us. Sometimes people need to consider this is an only one shot. I mean, well the individual only shot? I hope so. I am almost at level 38 Portuguese barbarian (lel).
