It is within this book that the people of Israel are taught how and what to think of many different aspects of their lives. In Oranges are not the only fruit we see that Jeanette has been given rules and told how to live her life by her mother, and up until now has strictly obeyed. During the beginning when her mother hears her neighbors having sex Jeanette isn’t able to understand what is really happening but due to her mother’s reaction, she is sure that it is sinful. Later in the chapter, a sermon is held in her town, which is where Jeanette’s Leviticus begins to differ. The pastor speaks on perfection, which man was, flawless, before the original sin.

This work is aimed at those people like the mother of Lazarillo who had to let their children go since they were very young to have a better future in their lives, and is focused on all those who do not value our mothers, for every effort that Has done for us and

When this eight year old girl tells the speaker she has six siblings he asks where they all are and this is where she explains that two of them are buried by the church. Since the two siblings are dead people assume this girl is in denial about this. Following the speaker thinking that this girl does not believe her two siblings are dead she says “The first that died was sister Jane...God released her from her pain” (Wordsworth 279). This quote shows that the child is aware that her sibling is gone and shows her belief in God. In some religions, it is believed that people are reunited with their loved ones after death and it appears that the girl believes one day she and all of her siblings will be together again, which is why

The more time Kambili spends in Nsukka surrounded by her ancestral beliefs, she abandons her schedule and watches television—though she finds it hard to do these things. Her inquisitiveness causes her to begin to disconnect from the pressure that Catholicism
Until I came across this beautiful quote, I believed that if two people mean well, if they have love, respect and kindness toward each other, it was enough to make a marriage work. I was ready to settle for marriage with children by age twenty-three. It was then I found out that my boyfriend of two years was not at all interested in marriage or having children. I moved on with my life searching for my ‘soul mate’. I dated a couple of church boys, and I believed if we shared the same religious beliefs, plus the love, respect, and kindness, we would be ‘ok’.
