Cross culture aid issues

Watched a press conference with Fr Chris Riley on his work in Indonesia after the tsunami. He made some interesting comments/ points-

- Despite being a Catholic, he has worked with the government of a 95% Muslim country to establish a Muslim school for kids who have lost all relatives.

-He has no intension to 'convert' the children or other people to Christianity and rekoned christians going in with the intension to help but also convert (which could be considered helping) where taking advantage of people going through a traumatic experience.

Is there any difference between this and working to help youth who often are going through a tough experience- never sure how much we should be pushing christianity and christian education or just be open about it. Guess it gets back to whether it's more important to help others or spread the word.

Does God love a grumpy greedy Christian more than a loving helpful and good Muslim who reflects Jesus's life more than the Christian but dosen't use the Jesus lable for it? When Jesus said he was the only way to the father did he mean all we had to do was acknowledge that and take on the Christian lable or that we should take on his example and live and love as he did?

- another comment Fr Riley made was about taking money from the Devil to help others- or eg. useing money donated from gambling institutes or brothels.-If it's needed does it matter where that money came from?

-liked his comment and story about how some of the kids got upset over 3 boys having to leave and they became destructive and broke some stuff- many people would label them ungrateful and undeserving or try to stop the behaviour etc. But he was glad they did it because it meant they were at least dealing with their pain in the best way they could at that time. Also that any counseling needed to be done by people from their own country- because of language issues which are really important but also cultural issues that people from other cultures are not sensitive to.

Anyway this is his site-
