Equality 7-2521 now sees himself as the “face of god”. Equality 7-2521 has reached to the end of his quest, where he strongly believes that he does not need a warrant for being, because he himself is “the warrant”. Equality 7-2521 says in the passage “The miracle of
Patriots and prophets Chapter 1- Why was sin permitted? When God made the heaven and all the other worlds, it was made in love and perfection. Gods aim was for the angels and all that he had created to simply worship him in honor and love. At that that time there was no hate, no envy, no lust-there was no sin in heaven or the world. However, although god can foresee all that is, was and will be, he still gave the angels freedom of choice.
It also allows human beings to get their minds around the fact that Gods knowledge and being is beyond anything our human minds can comprehend, let alone try to describe with ‘positive’ words. It is easy for us as human beings to believe in a God and portray God to be like us (anthropomorphism), but truthfully we do not know how he would appear, and this theory helps to convey the mysteriousness of God. Negative descriptions of God or divine Powers are literal fact and so are easily understood across cultures and time, because they never change and always remain fact, there is no confusion, however
“Holy Cakes” is a story that teaches us that everyone is equal in god’s eyes, and even though everyone is not on the same caste platform socially they can be emotionally and spiritually. This message is constantly preached in Sikh temples to remind us not to judge people, and treat everyone with equality. The “Golden Temple” fits well with the proverb “It’s better to be safe, than sorry” because they teach the same lesson. A man from the Sikh community decides that he will chip gold off from the Golden temple. However, as soon as he takes the gold, he instantly becomes blind.

This in our eyes is a morbid and gruesome way to be brought down, and the thought that it was almost voluntary and the whole town participates women, men, and children is more then most can stomach. In our minds he who is with out sin shall cast the first stone. Jackson was making a point to Americans through The Lottery that societies are not all as innocent as they believe themselves to be, thus no stone should ever be cast. She illuminated this point through the townspeople's belief that there is no inherent evil in the annual stoning of an innocent victim, because they themselves are without sin. The reader is, nevertheless, incensed by such an act.
Twain puts a young white boy in a grand journey with an enslaved black man, running for his freedom. Such circumstances are enough to set people off by itself, but Twain goes one step further to show the malice of the time, stereotyping a race. The thought of explaining Mark Twain’s book to students is enough to make most teachers shutter because of the ferocity of actions taken against those who cannot properly present the information. However, it is their job to introduce students to a true literary work of art. If we have no faith in our educators, then we lose hope in future generations’ capacity to judge right from
Naturally Violent “People are Violent because they are born that way.” Modern writers often speak of people native to violence. Although these three stories disproves that mankind is born evil, in Ralph Ellison’s “A Party Down at the Square” says the white narrator does not like the racism but will approve of it because his family and the environment revolved around him is indeed racist. “Invisible Man” also by Ralph Ellison, the Invisible man was always seeing the bright side of everything but as he grew older nobody noticed him so he turned evil, he understood that no one will ever see him the way he wants to be seen. “The Destructors” By Graham Greene, this also disproves the statement of all mankind are born evil because it shows

Though everyone in the town of Maycomb continue to criticize Atticus for defending Tom Robinson due to the color of his skin, he strived to accomplish his goal, his mind was set for victory. Courage was seen by Atticus when he was asked why he is defending Tom Robinson: “For a number of reasons," said Atticus. "The main one is, if [he] didn't [he] couldn't hold up [his] head in town, [he] couldn't represent this county in the legislature, I couldn't even tell you or Jem not to do something again. […] Scout, simply by the nature of the work, every lawyer gets at least one case in his lifetime that affects him personally. This one's mine [...]” (100) He accepted the case to set a good example for his children, he also accepted it to try to discern if the town of Maycomb might realize that racism is not the way of living.
