Whats wrong with earning your keep?
My pastor would pay the natives in food and trinkets (candy, pens) but only after they did their fair share of church building and other work.
He would also encourage pleasent attitudes. If any of the natives got uppity he would pull out his hickory stick, wave it around and start shrieking "curses" at the natives.
Being a superstitious lot they quieted down instantly ( though if it was out of fear for the lord, or fear of pastors "powers" I do not know..
Oh, I see. You're a jerk. Never mind.
