John Proctor, Hero or Stooge?

John Proctor, Hero or Stooge? To me hes a Hero. He might have done some bad things throughout the story, but saving a life is to me a Hero. Unless you could have saved more. He tried hard to clear his wife, but the law of back then and of that place was just totally messed up. The only reason why they're there is because they follow family and i guess his family must have been there as well.
He betrays his wife by having an affair with Abigail. However, there is a clear part in this play were Proctor doesn't want anything to do with Abigail. Abigail ends up trying to get Elizabeth killed, so that she can have Proctor to herself.
At then end of the story, Elizabeth tries to save Proctor by lying, but it wasn't what Proctor wanted. The one thing he managed to do was save his wife and coming child. That was one of the most important keys to the savings of their lives.
Proctor was a hero the only small bad thing was that he didn't want people to know he had an affair with Abigail so h declined to sign some papers. He wanted his name to be clean, but he did confess what he had done. Proctor was a good man at heart. He just made a mistake like every other human.

Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God

This “sermon” is terrifying, more than any other. I have to say that what God is he talking about, surely not mine. I mean there is pretty rough stuff in this story. Edwards is saying that God has an arrow pointed at our hearts and once we draw over the line he will let it go, leaving us gushing blood. He also mentions metaphors like “his wrath toward you burns like fire” as if God was already mad at us.
Edwards throughout the sermon is saying that we are all sinners and we cannot escape the punishment of God. He mentions that we have a pile of punishment just piling as we sin and once it overflows it will just burst out and will hit us with God's punishment. It has a power so mighty than not even if we were ten thousand times stronger would we be able to stop it.
If this was true so many bad people would not just die, because according to Edwards it isn't enough punishment and it isn't that bad as he explains it in this story. This God is a evil God, just waiting for us to sin and destroy us with a punishment. That is, of course if he existed because this is so out of line and plain dumb. I am a Catholic and I think this is foolishness. My god is forgiving. :)

There Goes The Neighborhood!

If an African American, White person, or any Hispanic family moved in to my neighborhood everyone will be like, "There's a new family in the neighborhood ,blah blah blah! However if an Asian or Middle East family moved in we would be like, wrong neighborhood buddy!
I live in a almost 100% Mexican neighborhood. I know almost everyone except for some old folks and some gang related people. Everyone here knows the people that do pass by and they know those that don't really live around here. So like i can say, "What's up?" to about 50% of people. There is a gang problem in my neighborhood and i have experienced lots of crazy things.
If someone of that race where to move in we would ask ourselves, what brochure did they find this place in or something like they must be really poor or incredible dumb to move in here.
I know for a fact they would be disliked from most people and by 95% of the people that they don't know. Like right now everyone asks me why my mom rents the basement to these Pakistan people. Mostly people ask me, like my friends, when is the last time you went down there they might be hiding something?
I get where they get that, but it is wrong. Everyone that has met them knows that they are very nice people. They like to party and drink, that is one thing we have in common. I don't really mind anyone, unless they cause problems like gang members, otherwise I personally have no hate or dislike towards them.

Introductions

Hello my name is Josue Salgado. I'm currently fifteen years old. I attend Whitney M. Young Magnet High School. I am a Sophomore and no taller than five feet. I am the oldest sibling of four. I live only with my mom and sisters. I live in the south side of Chicago. I'm a really serious person with what is serious and i am also very fun to be around in most cases. I love to play any sport, but I love soccer even more than the rest. I don't really like watching sports. I do have favorite teams like the Chicago Sox, Chicago Bears, Chicago Bulls, Chicago Fire, and then my favorite national soccer team is Mexico because I am Mexican. I usually get along with everyone except my sisters.
I love all Mexican food, some Chinese, in fact some of everything, even though I don't eat a lot. Yes, it is because of my size and yes I eat a sufficient amount. I love chocolate and chips. Coca Cola all the way!
I don't like people who act all that or annoying people. I usually give up an argument because it is probably not that important. I have good luck! I found $50 today. Woo Hoo! I also don't like homework especially reading. Reading is probably my worst subject. I know 3 languages. English, Spanish, and French!
