The center idea of the story is that the christianism convertion is destroying the cultures, values, and customs established before. The convertion is not about real spiritually, but about imposing the missionaries way of living. The narrator tries to dissuade his neighbors from believing in the lightining rod man, Melville believes in a God full of love and not in a God or religion imposed by fear.

EDUCATING PEOPLE ABOUT CONSUMER AWARENESS
Dear Mr. Sharma, there is a need for consumers to be aware of what goods they are purchasing and have adequate information so they can make a better decision before making a purchase.
Recently in Mumbai, there have been various instances where a company does not inform potential customers about dangers, side effects and other risks associated with their product and the consumers end up getting what they do not expect. There was this case of a consumer buying a product without properly listing the contents and someone bought the product and had an allergic reaction because he was allergic to nuts, which was one of the major ingredients of the product.
I strongly believe that some stringent laws need to be put in place so that companies can properly educate customers on the content of their product so that they would be more aware of the product.
Yours sincerely,
Raju Sumesh
