Another way the crucible relates to my life also has to do with Abigail, when she shows that she has leverage over John Proctor and makes him all but bow to her every whim and not even call her out for being a fraud. This relates to my life because just like anybody with any leverage on you can and will use it to get what they want even me, just like when i knew something about a friend that he didn't want anybody to know i got him to tell me something i wanted to know, even though i would have never actually told anybody i used it to my advantage to get what i wanted. I believe that the Crucible truly shows the evil inside people that can come out when they are afraid that the truth can come out no matter what it might be, Practicing witchcraft or having a crush on a girl and i'm excited to see what else is going to happen in this book.

The crucible? What is it good for?
There are many ways this play can relate to all the people but really in only a few for every individual. The way that the crucible relates to me is through Abigail and the other girls when they would bat their eyes and tell the courts how somebody was a witch and they believed them really without a doubt is like when a girl in class does something like tell me "F*** off" and with a bat of the eyes they get out of it. I think this worked because it is just common perception that girls are totally innocent and don't do anything wrong like lie in both cases.

ReplyDeleteLev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?
