I literally saw 3 human beings being burned alive. I had never watched such a video before, and even though I consider myself a very hard person, I just stopped the video and bawled my eyes out. I couldn't believe what I saw. And I still can't believe that people think witchcraft is fucking REAL!
I want to rip things apart when people say Christianity is a peaceful religion. I can't imagine what horrors are taking place in Africa right this very minute.
And when people tell me to pray before exams, or pray for things, I always reply, "Why pray to God who would give you good grades but would forget Africa."
Can i have that link,as that can almost never happen

I am a Proj manager in a s/w firm and also have been involved in missionary activities in cambodia and Africa....
There is alot of wich craft in Arica..and we have urged them to burn their wichcraft stuff off....
but havent burned people
There are instances were wiches are burned their,but by the locals ,not missionaries

Missionaries cannot do it dear...you will know it if u visit that place once ...
As a missionary i do the following activities there
1.Establish good schools
2.Help the rape victims (ranging from 1 year old to 70 year old) to come back to life
3.Introduce them to medicine and tune them out of wich craft practices.
..there are many more...........
4.Introduce them to the Love of God,and urge them to love each other...
and just one more thing ..... the money is not funded by US or britan.....
its from our pocket....
and for each travel....it cost us 5 to 6 lakhs to do this missionary work...................
Note:I do not deny that there are quaks who disguise as missionaries and try to loot people...
I must agree that there are.Just like any other system,there is a percentage of such sickos ..
But a thousand quaks dosent proove that the real dosent exist.
Take care.
God bless
