From what I've found, the guy was talking about Globalization and how the capitalist-missionaries work both sides of the Third World street. They go in as missionaries and line up the coffee contracts; when they can't go in as Missionairies, they'll go in as Coffee Experts and then evangelize.

Have you ever heard what is taught in Catholic schools? muriel_volestrangler Jan 2015 #38
No shit they do in catholic schools. joeglow3 Jan 2015 #42
And the pope was talking about a book on gender theory being kept in school libraries muriel_volestrangler Jan 2015 #46
You honestly cannot see the difference? joeglow3 Jan 2015 #56
" someone providing ONE option and requiring that one to teach a particular view of God" muriel_volestrangler Jan 2015 #62
Yes. You were discussing aid in your comment joeglow3 Jan 2015 #73
The one form of aid I discussed was providing money for schools muriel_volestrangler Jan 2015 #74
By that logic, EVERY company that offers a product is giving aid joeglow3 Jan 2015 #75
The school is not a 'product'; it is run as a charity partially funded by the Catholic church muriel_volestrangler Jan 2015 #82
I am saying it is an alternative to an existing product people can elect to purchase joeglow3 Jan 2015 #99
If the church contributed anything to the funding, then they were aiding it muriel_volestrangler Jan 2015 #100
