TFA Chapter 22

This chapter goes into the passed before Mr. Brown visited the village. his successor was Reverend James Smith. Mr. Smith suspended a young woman from the church for pouring new wine into old wine bottles. I thought that was a pretty stupid thing for getting suspended for. But whatever. Then it goes back to the present. It explains that the night before the Mother of the Spirits walks the earth that it is a terrible night. They hear strange fearful sounds. The next day the masked egwugwu goes to the marketplace. It talks about a man named Enoch, who is the son of the man that supposedly killed the sacred snake. The egwugwu was furious so they ran towards the church, planning on burning it down. There they found Mr. Smith and his interpreter Okeke. They tried to get the men to return home, but they didn't listen. They burnt the church down to ashes. I thought this was very rude. It is like not believing in God. I thought it was soo sooo wrong of them to burn the church down. All he was doing was helping the people of the village. I think there are a lot of messed up people in this story. They have problems, and none of them can think for themself.
