Need to stop trying to take others culture from them. Didn't learn with the Anishnabee?

These religious do-gooders don't realize that some people are best let alone.

The north Sentinelese are worth a fortune kept in their Stone Age existence. I bet they are kept as a sort of DNA repository.

And people say the Christian Crusades are over. They are far from over just taken in a different direction. Since they normally cannot use violence to convert, send them in as diseased people to wipe out the non-believers.

should have stayed away!!

JESUS DID RESPOND to HIM when the arrow struck the BIBLE and saved his life 'GET THE HELL OUT OF THERE' was the message he refused to listen

'...upon further research, tribal members found 'American Christianity' to be a pompous ruse inflicted by ego-maniacal hypocrites. No promise of Trump Hotels or visits from Ivanka could change that.'

Even he died, he's intentioned is a remarkable faith to bring the gospel to this poor people who don't know about Jesus. KJV Matthew 5 10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for their's is the kingdom of heaven.

I commented that Christianity is not everyone’s cup of tea. What I for got to say is this guy is probably someone’s cup of soup

Well-deserved.

If you want to be a Christian fine, but stop trying to get everyone to believe in your beliefs. Christianity is not everyone’s cup of tea.

Endangering the Health & Welfare of an Isolated Tribe to spread Christianity is a Humanitarian Crime! Their Ammune Systems are lower & their ability to fight off our diseases is limited! The American Missionary was warned & by his presence was Guilty of Attempted Murder!

I am sorry he is dead, but what an arsehole.

It's called 'an order of no contact.'

IMO the world should allow this tribe and others like them to live without interference. We can bring them nothing but destruction.

let's edit this byline to reflect actual reality. Here goes...... 'American colonist fails in home invasion bid when Sentinel Island inhabitants stand their ground' Does that work? Or how about 'American criminal dies ignoring local laws of trespass causing violent confrontation'

Missionaries cause more harm than good. Ask Hawaiians.

Sadly he did not consider that he could unwittingly be bringing their doom in the form of diseases for which they have no immunity.

WololoFailed

Yeah, his handwriting is a dead giveaway of his intellectual capacity. Not surprised that outrageous idiocy was the cause of death.

I'd have done some David Blaine style magic tricks and convinced them that I was in fact, a god.

The guy was an idiot. Plain and simple....... FactsMatter

Cause of death: arrogance and stupidity.

Religion is stupid, this guy was stupid to do such thing. Personally I'd leave the body there and never return to the island. Let them live their lives how ever they want.

This guy was an idiot, he could have brought disease to these people.

might ? no man, we are sure about it

invader, withoutpermission, abuser

I love stories with happy endings. He got what he deserved.

Hopefully, Jesus will give him a medal of honor and stupidity

How about detailing colonization and it’s impact on the colonized in terms of deaths, displaced societies, modern impact. Requesting for a few million friends
