Things that you do when you're definitely healthy and not in a cult

He is the reason that "Missionary Position" now means facedown in the dirt with a back full of arrows.

In November, Chau embarked on a journey to North Sentinel Island, which he thought could be "Satan's last stronghold on Earth",[16]

We'd all be living in paradise if only he had succeeded. 😔

when he tried to hand over fish and gifts, a boy shot a metal-headed arrow that pierced the Bible he was holding in front of his chest

they may be primitive, but their grasp of symbolism is pure Hollywood.. are we sure they don't have HBO?

I mean it could've just been a fluke.

Like the kid was tryna kill him but the bible just happened to be in the way. I could see a Bible potentially stopping an arrow but it's not gonna stop the next dozen

Were any of the people at All Nations who specifically trained and supported him for this ever arrested? Seems like they should have been arrested.

This is like joining a historic reenactment group to train for warfare

In my mind the staff made sure to go "wow mr. Missionary thanks for telling us about Jesus!" after a day because they were tired of his shit.

How is this creepy?

This is the definition of Fuck Around and Find out.

It's creepy to the indigenous people. A religious nutjob who is willing to knowingly infect you with unknown pathogens like a Typhoid Mary and potentially commit genocide because he wants to be God's messenger.

True sociopath.

Was on the “all” feed, clicked the link, read the wiki page, came back to see if this community was “c/dumbDeadAssholes”

What a monumental asshole.

That idiot could have killed everyone on the island by introducing new pathogens, and he came there with the intent of destroying their culture on top of it. I'm glad they killed him.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago

They didn't kill him, his God let him die.
