Christian Orphanage

We went to another orphanage. And it was beautiful! It was for boys, and they had large rooms, a roof to play on, gardens where they plant their own herbs and vegetables, and they have their own goats, chickens and cows for work and food. However, we spent most of the time talking to the owner, who tried to convert everyone to Christianity. Unfortunately he made big use of the idea of money, saying non believers can't do good things without wanting money or recognition, and such things that always make other people angry. He also misquoted scripture, but I've learned I'm not really allowed to defy older Indian men, so I kept my mouth shut. At least the orphanage was beautiful.
