When the missionaries came to Africa they had the Bible and we had the land. They said "Let us pray." We closed our eyes. When we opened them, we had the Bible and they had the land.
As quoted in "Desmond Tutu: A Biography" (2004) by Steven Gish, p. 101

Im not favouring missioneries but i have searched and found that Tutu never gave up christianity and never opposed missioneries.
