    What a waste. The two of them could have just helped people in need in a safer place instead of going to a place where people were most vulnerable and try to covert them. They likely would have lead long productive lives. But instead, they were sacrificed by thier families and religion for the sole purpose of trying to grow the religion so that the people in power of that religion can have more power.

      To be fair, don’t people need help in the most dangerous areas? Missionaries mainly spread religion but they also offer aid

        People need help everywhere. These two are unlikely to have been trained or prepared to work in that kind of dangerous area.
