Benjamin Franklin wrote a document “Remarks Concerning the Savages of North America” that was in complete contradiction to the document “The Sovereignty and Goodness of God” written by Mary Rowlandson. Rowlandson's document viewed Native Americans as barbarous black creatures of the night and savages, this view was through her own eyes along with what she thought colonists viewed them as. This is accurate considering the time period, because white people did not accept people of different backgrounds or skin colors. Franklin disagreed with what Rowlandson said by simply saying that he thought Native Americans “when young are Hunters and Warriors; when old, Counselors”(Franklin 1), and thought that those were respectable traits. This was a big step for him to take because it was breaking the mold that people had set in place, and he was being accepting towards other types of people.

Option C. Franklin's "Remarks Concerning the Savages of North America" differ from Rowlandson's "The Narrative of the Captivity and restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson" in the sense that Franklin aimed to increase tolerance of Native Americans, while Rowlandson aimed to increase the settlers' devotion to their covenant with God.

Explanation:

In "Remarks Concerning the Savages of North America" Benjamin Franklin criticize Native Americans being referred as "savages" based only on the fact that their customs differ from the settlers. His words are aimed to increase tolerance of Native Americans, and to people to practice being polite and tolerant with those who have different cultures. On the contrary to Franklin's efforts to unify both communities, Mary Rowlandson in her captive narrative book called "The Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson" describes the Native Americans as violent savages, and mainly focuses her writing to spread the message that the settlers should increase their devotion to their covenant with God.

in paragraph 6 of "sinners in the hands of an angry god" by jonathan edwards, he talks about how doing good things alone will not save men from going to hell because they're at the mercy of the will of god. "spiritual reform" provides men with a false sense of safety.
