"The missionaries had come to Umofia. They built their church there, won a handful of converts and were already sending evangelists to the surrounding towns and villages. That was a source of great sorrow to the leaders of the clan, but many of them believed that the strange faith and the white man's God would not last." p.g. 142
I don't exactly approve of Okonkwo and his people's religion but i don't think that what the white people are doing is right. They are choosing to force their way into these people's life but who are they to say what religion they should have or how they live their lives. I think they should just leave before a bunch of problems arise due to the church. The main thing though is whether or not there will be blood between the two groups.
