i’m assuming by now you’ve all read about the christian missionary who was killed while trying to convert the uncontacted indigenous north sentinelese tribe in india – which is, in fact, illegal, because the tribe has had absolutely no contact with the outside world and is therefore incredibly vulnerable to foreign contagions and diseases – but what a lot of stories are leaving out is that the guy actually spent several hours on the island, long enough to speak with the members of the tribe and “sing worship songs to them,” before members of the tribe killed him. and he brought along a backpack with some personal possessions, which remained on the island and were handled by members of the tribe. which is to say he fully could have unwittingly infected the tribe with some lethal disease that could wipe all of them out. what kind of narcissistic sociopath.
“Police said Chau had previously visited North Sentinel island about four or five times with the help of local fishermen,” journalist Subir Bhaumik, who has been covering the islands for years, told BBC Hindi.
oh sorry it’s actually worse than i thought, he went to the island multiple times with multiple other outsiders, each time increasing the possibility of exposing the tribe to foreign contagions
A source with access to handwritten notes that Chau gave to the fishermen to pass on to a friend said that Chau described taking scissors, safety pins and a football as gifts to the tribe.
In his notes, the source said, Chau wrote that some members of the tribe were good to him while others were very aggressive.
“I have been so nice to them, why are they so angry and so aggressive?” the source quoted Chau as saying.
HE BROUGHT SCISSORS??? SAFETY PINS??? ITEMS THAT COULD INJURE THE MEMBERS OF THE TRIBE???
#not to be controversial but this just comes to show that christian colonizers #do not think of these tribes as thinking feeling autonomous people on the same level as them #or on any level at all: #they see these tribes as savages or animals #this could not be more clearly a matter of reaching some kind of ultimate christian trophy #it’s dehumanizing and evil #like the audacity of this colonizer is cartoonish – he loves them and jesus loves them? #give me a break. #no offense but these people have made their laws and it was within their right to kill this fool

Friendly reminder that “Judeo-Christian” is Not A Thing, as a term it is misleading and offensive to Jews, and should never be used except in the sentence I am currently saying.
You may refer to “Abrahamic religions,” which means Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. If you’re not talking about all three of them, odds are excellent you’re really just talking about Christianity, and should just say so instead of dragging us Jews into it.
It’s a minor pet peeve, but it is everywhere today so errrr…. please keep in mind that “Rest in Peace”/RIP literally comes from a latin phrase and is a very very deeply Christian expression.
When talking about the departed, Jews say “may their memory be a blessing.”
So please, when talking about a dead person who is Jewish, try to keep in mind that RIP is a Christian phrase.
I learned something today, so I’ll pass it on so someone else can learn too
