Its valid, because you see the absurdity and wastefulness of a person seeing a need for band-aids and flying them down there personally to snap selfies.
I see wastefulness in touristy mission trips.
I'm not saying all or most missionaries do this. I stand by the point that this type of behavior exists and is growing.
wmr lub da kids. I just want them to get that travel $ unless a person is down there building them housing or digging wells or fixing their teeth.

It would be valid if that were what was actually happening.
It is not what is happening, therefore it is invalid.

And you would be correct.

Completely disagree.
I'm not saying everyone who's ever gone on a mission trip is as pure as the driven snow (that's unrealistic), but your assertion that there's this rising demographic that's solely interested in these trips to deliver band-aids and snap selfies is, quite frankly, preposterous.

Are you basing this on your poor choice of facebook friends?
