It's kind of a cliche now, but I still find myself really upset by the corrupt missionaries. I hate the idea of someone who takes advantage of people's trust and uses that trust to manipulate in order to get what they want. I was happy when Mr. Brown didn't fit this corrupted description and treated the tribe with dignity and respect, but then got upset when Rev. Smith didn't follow Mr. Brown's example. I also feel really bad for the tribe who were blindsided by Rev. Smith's strict and harmful attitude. I think Mr. Brown's technique was more effective anyway and obviously less harmful.
