Modern Puritans

These people are not the ones that any american i know would want to associate with. for the simple fact that the way they think they should live there life is horrible. i would like to believe that these puritans no longer exist but i am probably wrong and they do exist. i would describe these modern puritans to be hopefully a little more accepting for people who question the church. these people would have to live in a remote rural area away from other people who are not puritans so like Montana and places over there is where u could find some of them. like i said before i hope that people in society today have chosen to go down this puritan life style cause that will get you living in Montana or something and everyone knows you don't want to live in Montana. other than that there really is not much too say about them just that they would be very mysterious people and live probably a very different life  than the normal american.

Also another tough thing is probably finding a job that you can work and still follow puritan rules that could be quite difficult.

John Proctor: Hero or Stooge?

the title i would have to give the man with the name of John Proctor would have to be a hero. even though hero do not usually die at the end of the day unfortunately this hero's days were coming to an end. his heroism all began when he chose to stand up to Abigail when they were alone together. he tells the woman that he will cut off his hand before he reaches out for her. this proves to me that he is a hero  because he could have easily went to a girl who was madly in love with him and started a new life but he stood up for what he knew was right and turned her down. a true hero like John stands up for what he knows is right like he did right there to Abigail. 

     the other reason and the biggest on i think by far for the reason i am giving John the title of hero is that again when all odds were against him he stood up for what he knew was right. he went ahead and decided that he wasn't going to have all these wrongly accused people be possibly sentenced to death anymore and just came out and said that for was with the devil and that he saw no one else with the devil it was only him. this decision spills the water out the cup put s him over the top and overflows the water in the cup of heroness and he will forever be a hero in my eyes. he did end up getting killed over this which is not good to see a hero die but when it comes to peoples rights and what they are accused of it can be looked at like MLK Jr. and he did end up being killed but he was a hero as well.

Arrivals... There goes the neighborhood

           Who are they and why have they come here,the natives spoke in their native tongue. Why do they come here and try to change our way of religion as well as the way we have lived live for the past millennium. Do, they believe they are better than us. From what i have seen i do believe these things are here to get us and if we do nothing they will overtake us. 

           The questions seemed endless they ranged from  what is your defense like to even how are your women here. After they seemed to get all the information that they need we had a feast to invite these new people to our land and this is thanks to our so wise leader. I did not believe that this was at all a good idea but, since our leader said that we will have a feast then a feast we must have. For this feast we had used up all of this weeks game for these people traveled in massive groups more than our whole tribe. At least the feast went well and we all had a good time so it was quite successful. 

           Now that we have eaten with these people and gotten to know them for one day it seems that they are good people we must be some of the fortunate for some other tribes have gotten new comers and they tried to attacks them and take there land. 

           It has been two new moons since these people have arrived I they have got accustomed here and seem to be liking it here. Over this time we have gotten to know them as better people they explained to us why they came here and how they came here. It was all fascinating for we as a tribe have believed that us natives are the only people that lived in this place. These people did not try to convert us for they looked at us like family and hopefully they continue to live with us and we can live together in harmony for a long time.
