He wanted to show them how to get to heaven, and they simply returned the favor.

Not sure what he was thinking trying to make contact with people known for being violently averse to outside contact? Oh well, he made some history, I suppose.

His intention was to convert them to Christianity, somehow. (I'm guessing he would have not spoken the language there.)

"He was attacked by arrows but he continued walking," - it says in the article. I presume he thought his god would protect him.

And what a waste of life it was. He wasn't even able to reach out to any of them for a chat.

I know what his intention was, by the way. I just think you have to be way out there (as in severely deluded) to think somehow this could be done safely knowing what these people are known to do to outsiders.

I feel sorry for the 7 fishermen that took him there. They are being charged with murder. At worst, they were accomplices to suicide.

Yet another victim of bad ideas.

Bad ideas kill.

.... also, arrows kill, but bad ideas help set up the situation where arrows fly in the first place.

I'm sure ALL the conservative evangelicals who have been enthusiastically supporting closing the borders will completely agree with the islanders' actions based on shared principles.
Being an antipistevist is like being an antipastovist, only with epistemic responsibility instead of bruschetta.

Ignore list includes: 1 douche bag (Drich)

Can the fishermen claim they took him there just for the halibut?
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

Probably took him so they didn't have to listen to his shit any more.
