Just as Christians have been waiting for Jesus for 2000 years, these people are waiting for John Frum.

John Frum is a messianic figure who is expected to come to them on a cargo plane.

The missionaries consider themselves to be far and away above the intellectual level of the indigenous people, yet they practice a Jesus cult which is based on the same messianic idea as the John Frum cult, and both are equally irrational.

jtoksa I am also an athiest. I, Unlike you am not a smug, obnoxious, self righteous bastard who props himself up on a flimsy pedestal of imagined superiority because of my beliefs.

If a person's religious beliefs give them hope and satisfaction then you have no place to discriminate against them.

You must have been created someway. Do you want to know how? I have a wonderful book called "Where do babies come from?" that answered my 7 year old nephews same exact question.

Science requires IQs above 100.

They're stuck at a genetically set 65-70.

I disagree - I would be prepared to bet that if you designed a test using elements of their culture and everyday lives, they would score normally, and of course beat us if we tried their test.
