A Dystopian Society: The Chrysalids and V for Vendetta After viewing the film V for Vendetta and reading the novel The Chrysalids, it is evident that these two pieces are perfect examples of a dystopian society. This type of society could be defined as a futuristic imagined universe in which oppressive social control and the illusion of a perfect society is maintained through many different ways. Ways such as propaganda, appalling treatment of thoughts who are different, and a controlling government that puts its people under constant surveillance, and uses social fear to maintain its grip on society. Propaganda is a main controlling factor within these societies. In the chrysalides, at a young age children are embedded with stories
Negative: The church ran the religious life of all that followed. The were the absolute ruler of the lives of their followers. If you were a follower of the church then you had to devote your life to your faith. You had to take a vow that you could not get married and that you would stay pure. When you wanted to devote your life to prayer and faith you could no longer have a personal
Catholics believe that only good works from people was the only way to get to salvation, but Luther was trying to make people know that you do not need to pay to be saved you just got to follow God’s rules, be good, and follow Jesus´ footsteps. Luther translated the New Testament so that people could learn about Jesus and his teachings. The church back then made Catholics fear God, they did this to take advantage of Catholics and make them pay money to the church. Luther always said that Go was never going to leave us and that he was going to be always with us. He also preached that when the time was right you will go to eternal salvation and not doing by paying.
Puritans agree that only visible saints should have Church membership but in England everyone could have Church membership so the Puritans came to the Americas to set up a Church where only “visible saints” could have membership. The Massachusetts Bay colony was set up by non-Separatist Puritans and they came also to set up their own Church because the changes in the way the Church in England was run was too slow for them. The way their government and schools were set up reflected their religious reasons. The government was to enforce God's commandments and every child was taught the Lord's words along with their curriculum. Harvard was established to train local boys for the ministry.
Shanice Lyn Licaros Mrs. Young Pahk October-22-2012 Who Is Right? Her PARENTS or the GOVERNMENT? In the story of “Dying for their Beliefs: Christian Scientist Parents on Trial in Girls Death” by Jeffrey Good (from the St.PeterBburg times). Government has the right one.

• How is the main argument supported in the article? The writer is exposing her own experience having a mentally retarded brother; she develops a story on how her family suffered because of him. The writer also expresses that people should have the power to choose between abortions or not once a fetus is diagnosed with a disability.
Buie says, “abortion was not an option for my parents when Jon was born back in 1949.” He understands that raising a child with Down syndrome was very difficult. This option of abortion might have been a solution to his family’s problems, instead of knowing their whole lives that they essentially gave up on their brother and son and sent him away. In cases like this I understand both sides of the struggle. I see how someone who is pro-life
When Barbara found out she was pregnant another time, she felt an abortion would be the best decision because she had little money to support her and her son already, and her mom said that she would not help her daughter with to have another baby. Barbara went through with the abortion, and even though she was set on the idea we could see that she was going through both physical and emotional pain both during and after the procedure. The story of Imaculee was also another insightful story. In this novel we learn that Imaculee was a young girl when the genocide in Rwanda broke out. The Hutu people were killing the Tutsis just because they were Tutsi.
All mother and father or parents who lose their children would not have the same degree of violation, which runs the risk of children from better surroundings being taught through the same Public Concept adverse activities and assault from other children.

The Florida Foster Care Changes system notices that when juveniles reach 18, they are tossed from condition support to virtually no help at all and no support techniques to select from.

For teen pregnancy, I understand some religious don’t think you should have a pregnancy before marriage. But if you don’t want to have a child, why you have sex at a young age? For victims of rape, you should not choose abortion because abortion is always a result of risking. There are a lot of options such as adoption. According to Kristi Burton Brown in “Why Do More People Choose Abortion Over Adoption article” he says: “In the USA, there are approximately two million infertile couples waiting to adopt, many times regardless of the child’s medical problems such as Down Syndrome, Spina Bifida, HIV infection or terminally ill. Dr. Brad Imler, President of America’s Pregnancy Helpline, confirms the challenge of waiting couples by stating: “Only 1% of the Helpline’s annual 40,000 clients inquires about adoption.” If the woman doesn’t want to have a baby, they can choose adoption solution.
