I may be the only one who is disgusted?
I'm sorry maybe im the only one that thinks this way. But, if peopel who say they are missionaries for a church should not run with there tailes betweent here legs out of a situation. There is a group of missionaries that came home from hatie that just got out of there after the quake, if they were real humanitarians they would have stayed there and help out with all taht they could. Not run home crying with there tailes btween there legs. I really dont care much on the opionon of the religion and what not i just think tis disgusting that they chickend out and not maned up to help.

If you looked at the situation a little closer, you would see that these missionaries wanted to stay, but were told to go home, due to the lack of accommodations and supplies. They would have drained resources needed to help the Haitian people. I'm not sure why I bothered to answer your question, given all the errors in your thinking, spelling and grammar, but I guess I thought your foolishness needed a little correction. Here's a spelling list for you: people, Haiti, that, tails, between, manned, this. The test will be next Friday.

Actually, if they aren't properly trained, all they would be doing in such a desperate situation would be using up resources and adding to the people who need to be protected.
The best thing any non-native civilian who doesn't know how to help can do is get themselves out of a disaster area.
A lot of missionaries are not rugged wilderness wanderers. The ones I've met are quiet and academic. They're there to teach English, maybe, and to teach Christianity. They don't know how to give any meaningful help.
(Sorry if that offends any evangelicals.)

I'll reserve my judgment of these people until I'm involved in an earthquake myself. If you lay a guilt trip on them hard enough, though, they may spring for a dictionary for you.

I'll reserve my judgment on this matter until all the facts have been revealed. It is unwise to rush to judgment.

In the meantime, feel free to sit on your sweaty chair at home where its safe, telling us how much you think other people should be over there to help. I think its disgusting how feminists only want to help women and children while leaving the men in Haiti to die. I guess it swings in roundabouts :-)
You'll be sure to judge yourself when you're not too busy judgeing other people, won't you?? When you have enough spare time on your hands of course :-)
