In Haiti: Why is it that when an Earthquake strikes, the Christian Missionaries are the first to leave?
Why is it as the aid workers pour in the Christian Missionaries pour out?

I was thinking the same thing. I was watching the BBC news this morning & I couldn't believe it. So it's all well & good to spread the word of god when everything is peachy, but as soon as the going gets tough they are the first ones out of there. Shameful!!

I suppose you might argue that God didnt make them build a city
on a fault line, doing that was excercising their free will.

Missionaries are still in Haiti, don't ever doubt it. Mostly they are working covertly due to the threats of violence. I've had the privilege supporting these people this year.

They are also in Iraq and Afghanistan again working covertly. They are in North Korea trying to help a country that is holding up to 70 000 Christians in labour camps.

Religion of Haiti
The most widely practiced religion of Haiti is Christianity. Haiti is similar to the rest of Latin America in that it is a predominantly Roman Catholic country with 80%-85% professing Catholicism and approximately 20% professing Protestantism. A small but growing population of Muslims exists in the country, principally in the capital of Port-au-Prince.

Vodou, encompassing several different traditions, may contain a mix of Central and Western African, European and Native American (Taino) religions is also widely practiced despite the negative stigma that it carries both in and out of the country. It is more widespread in the rural parts of the country. The exact number of Vodou practitioners is unknown; however, it is believed that a significant amount of the population practice it, often alongside their Christian faith. Some Protestants also have been known to participate in some rituals, although indirectly.
