Read the following excerpt from Leslie Marmon Silko’s story "The Man to Send Rain Clouds."

The priest sank down into the green chair and picked up a glossy missionary magazine. He turned the colored pages full of lepers and pagans without looking at them.

"You know I can't do that, Leon. There should have been the Last Rites and a funeral Mass at the very least."

Leon put on his green cap and pulled the flaps down over his ears. "It's getting late, Father. I've got to go."

When Leon opened the door Father Paul stood up and said, "Wait." He left the room and came back wearing a long brown overcoat.

What does the outcome of this discussion reveal about the priest?
He decides to surrender himself wholly to the traditional beliefs of the Pueblo people.
He realizes that he can provide a Catholic burial for Teofilo by sprinkling holy water on the grave.
Though he wants to spread his religion, his friendship with Leon overshadows this desire.
Though he wants to promote his religious beliefs, he is willing to make some sacrifices.

Explanation:

In ''The Man to Send Rain Clouds'', we follow a real life events of people of Laguna Pueblo Native Americans in New Mexico Indian Reservation. Ken and Leon's grandpa Teofilo died in peace under a cottonwood tree while herding sheep. They want to bury him in Laguna Tribe's tradition which includes speacial way of clothing, burying before the sun sets and so on. Louise, Leon`s wife, suggests that Father Paul should sprinkle the holy water as a part of burial in order to provide water for Teofilo in afterlife if he gets thirsty. At first Leon doesn't accept this, as holy water represents part of Christian tradition, but then it occurs to him that would encourage Teofilo to send them rainy clouds which would end the dry period and help with the agriculture. So he pays a visit to Father Paul and asks him to attend burial and sprinkle the holy water. Father Paul rejects the invitation at first, but after a little consideration of all the factors such as respecting the tradition of Laguna Tribe and their will to keep it, also his wish to be well accepted from the people of the tribe, as he is aware that if he wants to spread Christianity in a decent way in which people would change their beliefs and religion because they really want to and not because someone force them to do it, he decides to go and play his part at Teofilo's burial.
