A clear example of how far a human being can go when in need of something so precious as water. After all they all lived from what they could cultivate from the soil, without water there was no life. As everyone knows "desperate times call for desperate measures" but I think Mokgobja and the rest of the villagers were too far as to kill two of the girls even though it was clear that they care little for them both as they were always in the background, seldom said a word and also had sings of negligence from the older people in the house. The girls often imitated the adults going like "You stupid thing!" and such clearly there was verbal abuse from their parents.
As far as the religious beliefs goes on this story I certainly can't agree with what they did, religious beliefs and culture are wonderful, should be respected and are part of what a certain country is, but to go to the point of killing a little girl so it could rain? That's just messed up, rain falls down from condensed water in the clouds not because of a human sacrifice or an animal sacrifice. To attempt against the life of a living being for a religious belief, that I can't agree with.
