and why did Hugo Chavez recently kick out christian/ US missionaries out of his country, because of all the "good" they were doing, or did he then give back to the natives all that was stolen?

Don't idolize Chavez, he is a despot. And to the other question, missionaries destroy cultures.

First faulty either/or question: it could have done some of both (salvation and destruction). Not all missionaries had good intentions, while others may have just been misguided. That doesn't rule out the possibility that some of them did some real good.
Second faulty either/or question: maybe Chavez had good reasons for kicking out some of the missionaries and used them as an excuse for kicking out the ones who weren't guilty of stealing from the natives.

Yep. I mean, freedom of everything in this country by those who came here to evangelize.
Heck, I mean we are even one of the wealthiest countries in the world! Darn those missionaries for coming here.
Some people are never satisfied.
