STORY FROM THE SUDAN

A Catholic missionary found himself in similar difficulty with the Shilluk. He painted a delightful word picture of the beautiful and bounteous life in Europe. A Shilluk warrior stood up and said: "It cannot be true. If it were, you white men would stay in Europe instead of bothering us here." "We don't want to disturb you," the missionary said, "we only want to teach you." "Well, then," the Shilluk warrior answered, "what can you really do? Can you build a hut?" "No," the missionary said. "Or make a spear?" "No," the missionary replied. "I am unfamiliar with it." "Well, then, can you at least make pots?" The missionary acknowledged that he could not. The Shilluk warrior said, "Among us, even the women can make pots, yet you cannot do it. You are useless."
