As Satan witnessed firsthand, many people dare not risk angering God to his fullest extent. Another idea of "Paradise Lost" states that Satan is the root of all the evil in the world. John Milton shows this idea in several places within the story. For example, "The infernal Serpent; whose guile, stirred up .....

.... Scefing is essentially Beowulf himself. It is stated that Scefing is a warrior, a conqueror, gifted the spoils of his enemies as he defeated them.

.... she chose to obey the wishes of the gods and bury him. At the time of the drama, the Greeks believed that a decent burial was essential for the soul to be at rest.

.... Anasazi religion was very different compared to other religions of the world. Anasazi Indians chose to bury their dead either in the trash or against walls.

On many walls all over the area, a drawing of Kokopelli can be found. These Indians also drew wide shouldered forms called Kackina Spirits, and a "Big Chief" looking out from a red stained shield.
