What does Edwards mean when he says, “King Saul is in all of us?” All of us have a part that can hinder us from truly serving God. Saul’s fear and pride get in the way of the Lord’s will. We have the fear of losing what we have, so we try to hold on to what we do have. We have pride that hinders us from giving the glory to God. We forget that it is God that gives us the things and leadership that we have here on earth.

An example would be this quote that David said “I used to feel when I looked at her that I was seeing my mother as she might have been.” Furthermore, David feels about Aunt Harriet as someone that he like about what he has heard about her and like his mother. Second, David feels that Aunt Harriet is a good person and has a good heart about what he have heard about her. For example, David says “I had only seen her some eight or nine times, for she lived fifteen miles away in the Kentak direction, but what I knew I liked. As a result, David likes good peoples and Aunt Harriet was one of the peoples that were like his mother to him. In conclusion, Aunt Harriet looks like David’s mother for him about what have heard and seen about her.
Robert Harsh, for example, declares in ‘Exposing the Lie: Inherit the Wind’ that "Christians, particularly William Jennings Bryan, are consistently lampooned throughout, while the skeptics and agnostics are consistently portrayed as intelligent, kindly, and even heroic. I simply cannot escape the conclusion that the writers of the screen play never intended to write a historically accurate account of the Scopes trial, nor did they seriously attempt to portray the principal characters and their beliefs in an unbiased and accurate way." Another perspective of critical sentiment is voiced by Carol Inannone in ’First Things’ when she states that "Inherit the Wind reveals a great deal about a mentality that demands open-mindedness and excoriates dogmatism, only to advance its own certainties more insistently... A more historically accurate dramatization of the Scopes Trial might have been far richer and more interesting - and might also have given its audiences a genuine dramatic tragedy to watch. It would not have sent its audience home full of moral superiority and happy thoughts about the march of progress." And so the film has had its share of controversy and

“And here is your lanyard, I replied, which I made with a little help from a counselor (29-30.) In this line, we grasp how the narrator feels confident that the lanyard he braided would give his mother the passionate satisfaction that she once gave him. One of the key phrases in this line that demonstrates self- confidence in the narrator is “with a little help from a counselor”. With that help he received, he feels that the lanyard is something huge that can recompense his mother. The other tone that is seen throughout this poem is the mother’s responses.
First, when Euthyphro defines piety as “doing as I am doing”, Euthyphro is meaning that holiness is prosecuting religious offenders. Euthyphro feels that in prosecuting his father that he is following the example of the gods, and particularly Zeus, the most just if all gods. Socrates seems to find the first definition unsatisfying, he points out that the gods often quarrel, so what is agreeable to one might not be agreeable to all. Socrates then asks Euthyphro to again define piety. The second argument, Socrates has is that piety and impiety are opposites, and that the gods are always in a state of discord.
Edwards’ mind was so clouded with trying to scare these people witless, that he just contradicted himself. He took his reference, twisted and bent it to fit his own desires and didn’t think anything of it. You don’t change God to suit you; you change yourself, to suit God. He is the higher power, so He obviously has
