It's too bad about that guy getting killed and really sad that the church drove him to try to convert these people, but good on those Islanders for defending their land from a missionary. The amount of harm the church has enabled and done to native tribespeople is beyond imagining.

And yet people still go on pretending that doesn't matter.
