The indian...The so called "savage" is telling the missionary that he is not well instructed in civility and even accuses him of not being well educated. that is the irony in this story. Hope this helps :)
B) by showing the settlers their inability to see the similarities with Native Americans.
Explanation:
In this excerpt, the missionary explains his Christian beliefs to the "Indians," hoping they will believe him and convert. The Native people seem to accept the misisonary's stories, and they proceed to tell him theirs. When they are done, the misisonary does not believe any of the Natives' stories. The native people, therefore, become very offended. They argue that it is only polite to accept their stories too, since the Natives have accepted the missionary's stories. The irony is that the Native Americans see all myths as being on the same level, an idea that a missionary cannot comprehend.
