Answer:
The answer is yes. Melville is really criticizing the Christian Missionaries.
Explanation:
Because he uses many biblical, scientific, and mythological themes to built his story. The lighting -rod man is a representation of the missionares, while the narrator represents Melville beliefs. 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.

C is the correct answer, because, if you say that the narration is told in the third person, 'he/she' will be used. And if the narrator is omniscient, that means that he knows everything, what the characters are thinking/feeling.
This is simply a metaphor because it is comparing one thing to something that is very much unlike it.
