rewarding a belief

"The group says in return for agreeing to adopt the Christian faith, the indigenous people receive basic health care and literacy classes."

This just isn't right. What does health care and literacy have to do with religion? How can they justify tying the adoption of a belief to the rendering of these valuable services? Seems unethical to me.
