He bases what he thinks is right and wrong off of what he has learned from the Indians. For example, he thinks its right to sacrifice oneself for the better of society]]> 2019-02-04 18:51:00 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327474398 1100318248 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327474495 Similar to the Indians on the reservation, John bases what he thinks is right and wrong off of what his mother has told him. He was taught different morals from the groups of people because the Indians are seen as savages while Linda was from the New World. He learned to read and he was taught the benefits of it. He has also learned from the mistakes of Linda, for example, he knows that not everyone belongs to everyone else. Also, Linda rarely acted like a mother to John because of how she grew up. So John did not have a close connection to family.]]> 2019-02-04 18:51:08 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327474495 1100318248 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327474613 The book of Shakespeare's works was John's best way of practicing reading, something that the other savages did not do. John used Shakespeare as a source of emotion and thought. It became one of his sources of morality because he was able to express his feelings into words and actions. For example, his feeling of hatred towards Pope was finally put into context after John read Shakespeare's works. "Suddenly there were more words...The magic was on his side, the magic explained and gave orders." (Huxley 133)
So he was able to justify his actions through Shakespeare.]]> 2019-02-04 18:51:19 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327474613 2000136062 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327478108 25 years ago, Linda and the director went to the forest and engaged in sexual behavior. ]]> 2019-02-04 18:56:44 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327478108 2000136062 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327478789 After this, Linda fell into a ditch and hit her head. She was unconscious, but the Director looked for her until he couldn't continue, because he didn't have any more soma to ease the pain in his knee. Linda was presumed dead so the DHC eventually left and went back to the city. ]]> 2019-02-04 18:57:50 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327478789 2000136062 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327481160 Linda later woke up and went to the reservation. She realized that she was pregnant and couldn't get an abortion. She gave birth to John on the reservation and he was raised with the others. ]]> 2019-02-04 19:01:51 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327481160 2000136062 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327489103 Linda found a book of Shakespeare's works and gave it to John to practice his reading. He enjoys learning new words and eventually begins to use them to better express himself and his feelings. For example, when he is talking about how much he hates Pope, his hate intensifies because he now has words to describe his feelings. ]]> 2019-02-04 19:14:43 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327489103 1100318248 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327663834 John combines different realities, from the new world to different religions. "Lying in bed, he would think of Heaven and London and Our Lady of Acoma and the rows and rows of babies in clean bottles and Jesus flying up and Linda flying up and the great Director of World Hatcheries and Awonawilona."

He believes that the DHC chose to leave Linda and later John. In reality, the DHC looked for Linda until he could no longer bear the pain. He actually did care, because he wasn't supposed to and shouldn't have gotten into a relationship like this, but he did, and then lied about it. He and Linda only wanted each other, even though they are supposed to belong to everybody in their society. ]]> 2019-02-05 18:32:32 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327946266 2000136062 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327948360 Did John learn morality from the Indians on the Reservations, from Linda, from Shakespeare, or from another source? ]]> 2019-02-05 18:35:46 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327948360 2000136062 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327954426 The Story of John]]> 2019-02-05 18:43:48 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327954426 2000136062 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327954864 Is John's system of morality religious in nature?]]> 2019-02-05 18:44:22 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/327954864 2000111000 https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/328078675 For the most part John's morality is based off of relgion because of the culture he grew up around in the reservation but it is also influened by what he learns from his mother and the writings of shakesphere.]]> 2019-02-06 01:17:18 UTC https://padlet.com/2000111000/opc42j8kzshe/wish/328078675
