I wouldn't feel very safe about the Preacher going with all of that money. I agree with Elijah when he goes through all the different "bad" things the Preacher's done on page 234. Also the Preacher usually tends to trick you in a way to get you to do something that he wants you to do . In conclusion, I wouldn't trust the Preacher because to me he always seems to be hiding something.

ReplyDeleteI would not feel safe at all with the money that I had been given. Just like Alex said about her agreeing with Elijah I agree with her and Elijah. And when Elijah's father had that gut feeling that something was not right on page 237, I would have saw that as a sign not to send the Preacher.

ReplyDeleteI would feel fine because I would not give him the money in the first place. He is a jackleg preacher. The preacher does all sorts of bad things that Elijah lists on pg. 234, like Alex said. The preacher also follows this rule called tithing. But he tricked Elijah into tithing 40% of his perch instead of 10%. The preacher is positively not holy. I have no idea why he calls himself preacher. Throughout the book, he has been a sinner!
I definitely wouldn't trust the preacher with that kind of money. He's a very sneaky man who always gets the best of people, like when he steals Elijah's fish. Like Alex also said, he always tricks people into doing things for him. I think he would take advantage of the fact that he's traveling with someone else's money. One thing is for sure though, if he does take the money, he'll be stripped of his title as a preacher.

I would feel very uncomfortable and a bit nervous. Like everyone has said the Preacher is a very sneaky man. I would feel nervous because the Preacher has been going a bit crazy. Also on page 234 Elijah lists all these bad things that the Preacher has done. So if I would have to give my money to someone it would defiantly not be the Preacher
