Anthropologists! Anthropologists!

Can you engage another culture without entering into it in some way and changing it somehow by your presence and your own world-view? 

We can't remain objective outsiders when doing mission. We become part of the changed equation. Or do we? I think the the cartoon could work just as well with the caption: "Christians! Christians!" or "Missionaries! Missionaries!" 

(There's a certain irony about this old cartoon, when you consider how out of date the gadgets already are!)
