Chapter 18

It is common sense that the outcasts and worthless men would join the church because they are not accepted in the community. I knew the Okonkwo would eventually want to fight the missionaries because he is a great warrior. I think it is funny that he called the tribe a womanly tribe because it is his motherland. That is kind of ironic that he says that. I think that it is a good thing that the village didn't do anything violent against the christians because the whole community would probably be killed once the other white settlers discovered the murders. I think this lack of violence causes Okonkwo to miss his fatherland. His exile has to be coming to an end, and I think Okonkwo cannot wait to return. It is a good thing that he man who killed the sacred royal python died of an illness because it restored many of the Africans faith. I am really beginning to think that these missionaries are going to be the downfall of Okonkwo.
