    The Economics of Missionary Expansion: Evidence from Africa & Implications for Development http://www.csae.ox.ac.uk/materials/papers/csae-wps-2018-07.pdf … New paper throws some shade on the long-term historical persistence literature, argues missions and colonial settlement were even less randomly placed than thought.pic.twitter.com/LMHqeGFO0U

        Maybe with the weather? But His/Her guidance to missionaries seems suspiciously correlated with their material comfort and convenience.https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/acts-of-faith/wp/2018/05/29/a-televangelist-wants-his-followers-to-pay-for-a-54-million-private-jet-its-his-fourth-plane/?utm_term=.45a26aa90aa2 …

        Good; what a body of literature whose missionary zeal and purported findings were deafening and less than convincing! History might be random but not randomized 🤣

        Some study should also b done how missionaries in India are creating demographic change by offering money and incentives; and abusing native culture.
