In addition to Cora's hypocrisy, Faulkner's decision to make the religious figure Whitfield a conniving adulterous further displays the idea that religion, especially organized religion, is filled with ignorant hypocrites. Furthermore, the only other character portrayed who addresses the issue of religion is Addie Bundren, a soul tortured nilhist. Although Addie also has corruption, her corruption fits her ideology on life and her conscious decision of corrupting Whitfield, provides the reader with the notion that she, as well as the ideology she represents ,is the truer and
In his opinion the nation and it's leaders are at fault for not addressing this problem. 4. The complexity of the problem seems to determine the order of the examples where they begin with simple problems and then escalate.

11/17/11 Franklin's essays Topic 2 "The Speech of Polly Baker" seems to be aimed as a direct shot to the traditional Puritan lifestyle and beliefs we've previously read about. Miss Polly Baker is being accused of having her fifth child without marriage, all bastard children. A practice that resulted in harsh punishments towards the woman, often public punishment. In Polly Baker's speech she often takes satirical shots at this tradition, stating that she feels this punishment unreasonable and severe against her especially. Her claims that her bringing forth five fine children into a civilization that encourages new people is a contradiction to the prosecutions being bought upon her.

In order for Margaret Sanger to get her point across, she uses her personal nursing experiences and emotions. I will discuss different methods of bias, fallacies and rhetorical devices in my response. The bias method device that Margaret Sanger used in “The Morality of Birth Control” was in her statement that unwanted pregnancies led to poverty, crime and joblessness. Another bias statement Margaret Sanger also mentioned how the lack of birth control in motherhood is often backed by ignorance and risk. The fallacy method devices that Margaret Sanger used in “The Morality of Birth Control” were scare tactics, argument by force.
Escapism Beneath every utopia lies a dystopia breeding a disillusioned society. Methods used to create a society exempt of pain and commitment often prove even more harmful than what it originally replaced. In Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, Huxley attacks many of society’s defaults, one of them being it’s addiction to escapism. Huxley creates a world where drugs are issued by the government, encouraging citizens to avoid any emotional turbulence that may upset their conditioned tranquility. This idea rids humans of what empathy they are capable of and jeopardizes their reign on a stable emotional mind.
After tapping into his feminist side, he goes on to boldly challenge not “the law” as a whole, but the individuality/exceptions that should spring forth when needed. Using his character Polly Baker, who after being drawn into court for birthing another bastard child, reasons with the Judges saying, “ but since laws are sometimes unreasonable in themselves….I take the Liberty to say that I think this law to be unreasonable within itself”. And after setting the premise on individuality, Franklin drops a satirical bombshell by Polly Baker’s claim that “those very people you all know he is now become a magistrate of this
