I love 'The Crucible'. I guess I didn't know people would ever respond to it this way. I've heard that some conservatives have tried to ban it since John Proctor doesn't suffer any consequences from his affair (I don't know why they can't trace the affair to the ending of the play...it's pretty obvious to me).

Anyway, this kid sounds more like he's mentally ill than he's seriously concerned about witches in Michigan.

That's so 17th century.

Of course we're talking about an education major here.
