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.
