Under the guise of 'Amazon charity' programs, some officials still allow foreign groups and even Brazilian groups to promote the religious indoctrination of Amazonian native communities, which corresponds invariably to the demolition of the cultural identities of these ethnicities. 

In exchange for a few packages of Western style medicines and eventual health care actions, which are goods and services Native Brazilians never hoped to have, these "modern era Crusaders' are allowed to take from these people everything they always had and hoped to have forever: their culture, kept alive for thousands of years.

These post-modern pseudo-Messiahs, with their ethnocentric agenda imported from Europe and North America (and even from Brazil itself!) insist on reediting, in today's Brazil, the  miserable benchmark established centuries ago in the Americas, Asia and Africa.
