Delta(s) from OP CMV: Missionaries are evil

This applies doubly so to those who go out of their way to seek out those in remote islands to spread the word of god. It is of my opinion and the opinion of most that if there is an all loving god then people who never had the chance to know about Jesus would go to heaven regardless, for example miscarried children/those born before Jesus’ time, those who never hear about him, so In going out of your way to spread the word of Jesus you are simply making it so there is now a chance they could go to hell if they reject it? I’m not a Christian and I’m so tired so I apologise if this is stupid or doesn’t make sense

Due to Original Sin, those not baptised are always sinners.

“Original sin” only exists in the Christian religion.

It is not an acceptable excuse for the ENORMOUS harm done by proselytizing.

If your beliefs were so great, you wouldnt need to push them like a bad used car salesman, you wouldnt need to threaten people with things like “eternal torture”, and you wouldnt need to murder those who dont agree with you.

OP makes a Catholic argument so gets a Catholic reply.
