Response (personal opinion)
Topic sentence (again) Titles, authors, position taken and WHY

Strong concluding sentence.

We started class by reviewing the connections we have seen through our study thus far..
  • Satan looks bestial: horns, hooves for feet
  • Can't exist without evil/darkness/Satan  
  • Light vs. Dark
  • Evil exists within all of us - up to our freewill; power of choice
What do you think determines whether someone is good or evil?
-Surroundings?
-People around you?
-Genetics?

We watched a scene from the movie Bedazzled- A guy was given 7 wishes in trade for giving his soul to the Devil. On his last wish he wished for the love of his life to live happily ever after. Since he wished for something completely selfless the "contract" was voided and he got to keep his soul.
Think about Selfish vs Selfless as another point.

We watched a scene from Devils Advocate- A son finds out his father is the Devil and has killed his wife. He starts to piece everything together and realizes that he is on track to join her in hell.
The Devil says his favorite sin is vanity which ties back to being selfish.
