Brother, we are told that you have been preaching to the white people in this place. These people are our neighbors. We are acquainted with them. We will wait a little while and see what effect your preaching has upon them. If we find it does them good, makes them honest and less disposed to cheat Indians, we will then consider again what you have said.
Every model has weaknesses.
Don't make your models into something they are not. Be aware of the weaknesses. Anyone can look good for a little while. Some have said that the best models are those who have been dead for 100 years or so. That's good wisdom.
