Question FFF's altruism all you want, GC. History has been questioning missionaries' for far longer.
Heck, ask my aunt why. She was a missionary in Liberia in '64. Her nursing skills, and bowls of gruel, were only availed to those starving enough not to mind endless bible study(on a god they previously knew nothing of). Many of the diseases she helped treat, her predecessors no doubt introduced. What a Christian sees as kindness, only becomes cruelty once the medicine and food dries up(which it did). All that was left was a newfound belief in a suddenly absent god. But hey...believe in Jesus.
On second thought, don't ask my aunt. She's too busy 'gifting' chickens to East Africans in honor of my kids' birthdays. I hope my kids don't give the avian flu to a starving child as a result.
I don't necessarily 'approve' of FFF's methods, but I definitely don't approve of Christians.
