This is why (I have several more historical reasons actually) I believe we need to ban missionaries and people that evangelize the Christian bible (or any religion for that matter).

They rely on predatory tactics to spread their message and often plant seeds of division where they preach. I was reading a story about missionaries' tactics and one of them included only giving food to the poor that would agree to listen to the Bible. They wouldn't give poor people food until they sat down and listened to the priest.

It's sickening.

These fuckers are all over Guatemala too. They haven’t managed to penetrate my region yet but they’re persistent as hell. Send some away and two more show up.

Iran and Saudi Arabia banned missionaries and building churches, it's the only law I wish western countries would just adopt.

The church hasn't ended its predatory behaviors, it just has better marketing now.

china also doesn't allow foreign missionaries, only local Chinese people can be missionaries in China

This is the best option tbh, if you can't ban it outright at least prevent outside actors from coming to your country and treating their "mission" like it's a vacation and opportunity to gawk at the backwards locals who desperately need your help.
