Two Relating Novels
“They are unfaithful to the LORD; they give birth to illegitimate children. Now their New Moon festivals will devour them and their fields.” Hosea 5:7 What this is stating is that if you are unfaithful to the Lord then you will never be able to give birth to a child that will be a force in society. The way the society abuses the rights of man by conforming their own children is against my beliefs. In the Bible it states that a child is conceived by a man and a woman. It Brave New World it contradicts all what I believe and they believe that they can bare life by creating child as mutants. In 1984 it states "Until they become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious." This is trying to state the power that the government, for instance, has on the minds of the people. They seem to always find a way to get their ways influenced rather than having any input from any others. In Brave New World, as soon as the baby is born, they begin putting them to use for their own good and their freedoms and liberties are all stripped from them. What they believe is that the production will be much more sufficient and that everyone will have equal rights as everyone else. In 1 Thessalonians 2:7, it states “As apostles of Christ we could have been a burden to you, but we were gentle among you, like a mother caring for her little children.” In Brave New World it takes away all the emotional feeling that a mother and father feel towards their son or daughter as they are born. Rather, the parents will never know who their babies are, or for that fact even their mate, because they were just all thrown together and froze until it was the proper time for the 96 babies to be born. Brave New World is a very interesting book in the way it presents its story line and there are a lot of weird and challenging elements that go along with it.

Alright Ryan i really like what you have to say except for the fact that you dont have a thesis statement. Once you come up with one I probably will have a better understanding of what exactly your going to write your essay on. Besides that though I think you incorporated the Bible pretty well in relation to BNW and 1984. I'm excited to actually see what you come up with for your thesis and for that matter your whole essay.
