I Have a lot of questions
It is really sad that the Hubris of religion caused this kid to break laws and lose his life in the pointless act of showing up uninvited.
Condolences to his family. I do not however, feel bad for the young man himself. With his misguided faith, he records North Sentinel Island as "The Last Stronghold of Satan"???? WTF? Why? because Christianity hasn't been included there? Why is it that Christianity cannot leave people alone? Why are Christians so arrogant to think that people who said NO to everyone else will all of a sudden say yes to them? Where is the brain power? What benefit to this boy is this new status of Martyrdom? He had his whole life ahead of him, but instead of living it, he decided to illegally go to a place he apparently knew slim to nothing about, to a people he had no way of communicating with, potentially infecting these people with viruses they have no immunity to. he could have done so much more damage than good.
It's upsetting for me because I feel for the Sentinelese and now their whole way of life is in danger because this naive boy decided to recklessly endanger them in the name of Christianity.
Religion is more harmful than helpful.
