Does the World Still Need Missionaries ?

As most missionaries are spreading the goodwill of Western Religion, are they really still needed ? Are they behind the times thinking they can bring the foreign heathens to god ? Do they actually think they can assist starving and suffering peoples and at the same time "teach them the love of god" ? Give me a break. Yes, some will come back and say that there are many 'missionaries' that do not preach but assist in rehabilitation only. This is true. I guess they call themselves 'missionaries of love'. Who knows. This is'nt about them. This is about the ones who feel the need to spread their religion to others who for the most part don't really care, or who are too weak minded (brought on by incredible suffering). There are Aid agencies to assist suffering peoples, who's own government don't give a rats ass about them. (thats another post !!) 'Missionary' sounds so 19th century 'bring the word to the heathens'. Really. There are still missionaries in Northern Canada for petes sake !! Thinking that the inuit need the word of god brought to them. Leave them be ! They are fine with their own beliefs and traditions. I have met so many missionaries who are right out there in left field...almost seemingly in a drug haze in their beliefs. I have also met others (minority) who are totally down to earth and just want to help the less fortunate...with a little of 'the word' thrown in. Some people say you don't see Muslim missionaries for example as they just pump out offspring to overwhelm by sheer numbers, eventually. You have to admit this has a ring of truth to it. Really. I don't know why you don't see Jewish missionaries...Is there such a thing ?
