More on the religious right tsunami wackos - this is really bad

Remember those two poor American women who were arrested by the Taliban for trying to convert the Afghanis to Christianity. Well, guess what? Their church in Waco, Texas is one of the groups causing an uproar in Sri Lanka by using the tsunami relief to try to convert the heathens. Even better, they're practicing faith healing with the locals, AND are denying that they're missionaries, claiming only to be relief workers when they're clearly not (deny me three times?). Not to defend the Taliban, but the heroes welcome these women got when they got back to the US, well, I wonder if they were perhaps involved in a little more troublemaking than they admitted.

Read this entire NYT article, it's got way too much good and outrageous information to quote - seriously, read the entire thing.
