Correct. The answer is C. In his sermon, Montecito assumes that it is more important for the Spaniards to follow the precepts of Christianity than it is to pursue the riches of the New World. He suggests that the native people are God’s people, despite their non-Christian beliefs. At the same time he points out that, while the Spaniards are Christians in name, they are violating God’s laws in order to acquire wealth.
