Food is not the only substance required for a healthy life, so is the Word of God.
If that is what the particular missionary believes, then that is their right.
If an ethiopian child was to say he/she doesn't want to know Jesus, do you really think that child would not be fed the meal that day?
You should try to avoid letting South Park establish your views.

First and foremost, he was Jewish. There is no such a thing as a divine man in Judaism. Only in Greek Mythology. Then, to claim that he was divine, Christians have to exonerate the fact that he was a biological son of Joseph's. But by doing so they are leaving the season open for the speculation that Panterus was his father. You know, the Roman soldier that raped Mary. Oh yes, at that time in Israel, rapes of young Jewish ladies by Roman soldiers was a common tragedy. Since the unfortunate mothers could not be blamed for promiscuity the religious leaders prohibited to ostracize their children born without a Jewish father. So, they became know as "sons of God." That's why Jesus grew up with the idea that he was son of God. Is it enough against Jesus' divinity. The fact I have mentioned has been proved by historians.

In Revelations it says that Jesus will have a sword and chop people up, so apparently Jesus also makes a good weapon.
I saw the South Park battle between Jesus and Satan in the boxing ring. I don't have cable right now, so maybe I missed that one. South Park is hilarious!

South Park depicts an unrealistic view of the world.
IF (And I say that because you appear to be using a sacreligious, immature television show to validate your opinion) Christians are using benifits such as aid to get people to convert to Christianity, then that practice should be disbanded immediately. The conversion to Christianity should be done out of choice and acceptance of Jesus' gift of salvation, not to get some free food.

You're condemning feeding the poor because of something you heard on a cartoon show?
Who was the last poor person you had in for a meal?

Are you getting your ideals and morals from a stupid TV cartoon? Maybe that's where you went wrong. Yeah that's it alright!
I'll pray that God will open your eyes to the truth that lies in Jesus.

If you're going to base your vision of us christians on an episode of south park.............problems, I tell you.
Try reading and meditating on scripture instead.

Various people offer incentives to bad behavior. Why is it bad to offer incentives to good behavior? It might encourage hypocrisy, but that relatively speaking is a small sin.

How come the US under Clinton only gave money to poor countries if they abort their babies?

You do know that God sent a drought to Tanzania while they were trying to irrigate. It forced them to stop using water for electricity and use it to try to maintain the rice fields.
