We should just send money to local evangelists, who are more effective.5. Mission is 'West to the Rest' (a neo-colonial endeavour).6. Missionaries are super-spiritual - and I'm not.7. Missionaries are super-gifted - and I'm not.8. Missionaries receive a special call from God.9. Missionaries have to give up their careers to go.10.
