"This trip taught me that religion is not always right, if anything this trip drove me away from my religion. I found myself getting angry at the fact that we were there passing out bibles and trying to get these kids to "accept christ.""

This may be the way that some Christians approach mission outreach, but this isn't always the case. I know several men who are going on a mission trip to Honduras to help some villagers get access to a clean-water supply. They also tell them about the good news of Jesus Christ. It's unfortunate if the individual who had the above experience holds these negative assumptions about all Christian outreach.

TF got a lot of things wrong.
