Everybody has different morals and beliefs. Some people are Christian, some are catholic, and the list goes on. Nonetheless, everybody has a different set of rules and creeds than everybody else. Personally, being a catholic has not affected my morals and how I think. However, in \u201cA Good Man is Hard to Find,\u201d by Flannery O’Connor, \u201cThe Misfit\u201d believes that all good people and bad people will end up in the same place, so why not just have fun in life?
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a child, I have been raised to work hard in school and be respectful towards others. It has made me to be the person I am today, and I believe that hard work and being a good person will be rewarded in some way. \u201cThe Misfit\u201d believes that all humans have the same fate, so he should spend his time doing whatever he feels like doing. In this case, \u201cThe Misfit\u201d chooses to murder random people. On page 12, \u201cThe Misfit\u201d claims, \u201cYou can do one thing or you can do another, kill a man or take a tire off his car, because sooner or later you\u2019re going to forget what it was you done and just be punished for it.\u201d

There are countless religions in the world, with countless followers to them. Some of the mainstream religions are Christianity, Catholicism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, and Judaism. All of these are different religions, but they have a similar backstory. All these religions believe in a God, and they believe that there is a place for the good people and bad people in life. \u201cThe Misfit\u201d was arrested for a crime that he claims he can\u2019t remember. When \u201cThe Misfit\u201d told this to the mother of Bailey, grandmother of John Wesley and June Star, the grandmother immediately jumped into prayers. This put \u201cThe Misfit\u201d off, and on top of everything else, meaning \u201cThe Misfit\u201d was an atheist.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, \u201cThe Misfit\u201d may not be an atheist, but due to his beliefs, he has to be some sort of atheist. Clearly, according to page 13, \u201cIt\u2019s no real pleasure in life.\u201d doesn\u2019t have anything joyous in life besides shooting people. Unlike the grandmother, who even though does not show it based on the previous pages, she loves her son and grandchildren.

All in all, religions around the world have their own beliefs; such as: thou shalt not steal, restrain anger, and there is only one God. Throughout all these religions and their beliefs, some of them are similar. That is because most religions branched out from other religions. Religion plays a pretty big part in \u201cA Good Man is Hard to Find,\u201d by Flannery O\u2019Connor. The main villain, \u201cThe Misfit\u201d, is an atheist who chooses to murder people for fun because he doesn\u2019t believe that people have different fates. It shows in his beliefs compared to beliefs of other religions. Even though \u201cThe Misfit\u201d is a respectable man, according to the grandmother, she only said that to spare the lives of her and her family; showing how truly evil he is.
