Hi, Nadia,

I just want to say that I agree with you about some of the methods used by missionaries to convert people. But not all missionaries acted, or act, in such disgusting ways as you described (the rifle incident). Forced conversions by Catholics to non-Catholics during the Spanish Inquisition were horribly wrong, but forced conversions, in the cases of Christians today in southern Sudan, who are forced to become Muslims or die, are equally wrong. You can be sure that in the end, God will take revenge on all those who have committed wrongdoings in His name.
