Overall, Christianity had a positive impact on the Sawi culture. Some parts of their culture were destroyed, but they were going to be destroyed anyways and the things they did were just not right(cannibalism). The Sawi people can not be isolated forever, they will have to live alongside modern societies eventually. Being Christian, they will be more accepted than if they had kept to their old ways, treachery and violence.
Accepting Christianity also gives faith and strength to the people, it makes them feel united. Tribes came together and stopped fighting to pray together and honor God. The Sawi used to be violent and treacherous, but accepting God changed everything for them.
