This always fascinates me.

With all the social problems we have in this country which could use a
good dose of old time religion, why do missionaries have to go to
another country to help and do good works? Why not the Bronx or East
LA or American Indian country? Why Central America or anywhere else
for that matter?

It's like adopting Asian babies - I don't get that either. There are
lots of kids here in the states, in particular older ones, that can
use good parenting and a good home, yet people insist on adopting
Korean, Chinese and East Asian Indian children. What's the point?

I just don't get it.


The Mormon's send missionaries to the USA. My nephew went to the Navaho
Indian reservation region.



Adopting babies from far away lands (Asian, Europe etc,) do not come
with Lawyers from far away lands that will haunt the adoptive parents
asserting rights of the birth parents. Long after the adoption has been
completed.

I'm glad my daughter adopted a Korean infant. I love Korean food!
