Evangelical missionaries came to change the ways of the natives by showing them Western culture. Schools were built for children to learn about outside civilizations, but not their lifestyles. Joe Kane emphasizes this with people's attitude towards missionaries. Rachel Saint is one of the many missionaries who dissuaded the natives from their culture and forced them to commit ethnocide which means "killing the culture" (Kane, 7). Rachel Saint, the Ministry of Education, Business and Religious Groups, has tried to make the Huaorani learn Western methods such as ABC, mathematics and geography. This is one of the difficulties of the Huaorani because they are losing their culture and are struggling with adapting to Western ways. Rachel Saint believed they were corrupt and needed to be helped: "It seemed painfully obvious that [Rachel's] in any respect - emotional, physical, material - her reworking of the culture in her image had been a net loss to the Huaorani (Kane, 88).He is changing the culture of the Huaorani in his own way because of his personal experience and it is difficult for the Huaorani to sustain their culture when outsiders kill it.The most difficult part of assimilating into the Western world is their culture dead. It is very sad to see these years of preserving and living in harmony within the community and the Amazon. Destroying culture is inhumane and is proven in the 90s Moi as he walks through the streets of the city, without grasping the concept of society. The environment is difficult to adapt to. There is so much that Westerners can learn from them. They know the ways of the jungle and to destroy their culture is to destroy the living history passed down by them
