More from a cousin
Lately I've been corresponding with a cousin who feels so strongly about God that she goes to other dangerous countries to proselytize. I'll write soon about my conversation with her about her religion.

Ah, all is right with the world again.
I'm afraid I have to question the rationale of going to hostile territory to spread 'The Word' to people of other religions. History speaks to that sort of behavior rather loudly. It's as if they have a 'martyr wish', knowing the possible ramifications of breaking the laws of another country. In my opinion, working through an NGO to improve their lot would be more influential than empty words. But that's just me, I guess.

I do hope your cousin will fare well.
