    Can people really forgive friends?

    There are many times in novels where betrayal has occurred in certain friendships for example like Macbeth and Banquo. Can we really let go and forgive others? How do you show your justification for this? If your best friend betrays you, would you be okay?

    • Looking at Shaekspeare would be very interesting. His stories are mostly tragic, so the characters definitely tend to overreact. – noursaleh 9 years ago

    • I think it is important to distinguish between forgiving and having satisfaction. Is it really forgiveness if you have exacted revenge, or gained full restitution? – P. Thomas. Piche 9 years ago

    • Are any of us "okay" after betrayal, and does forgiveness make it okay? A nice angle to explore might be how characters, and real people, reach forgiveness without excusing the behavior. You could also explore how people make peace with the fact that they are not okay. – Stephanie M. 8 years ago

    I feel like Netflix is destroying the movie industry pertaining to the sale of DVDs. Since we rather use Netflix and other websites that enable us to watch free shows or paid shows. In a way you can think of the Netflix industry destroying jobs as well because we won’t really need people to produce DVDs for movies since they will be available online or in the theatres.

    I personally don’t think society is ready for LGBTQ. I think it’s too soon considering it ironic because our technology has sped up but not our acceptance towards things like openness to LGBTQ.

    I think it depends on the person, they may use it as art, a passion, beauty, or just for their own insecurities.

    Referencing from the article it is true that there are some youtubers who take advantage of their viewers and fans by writing a book that may have nothing but information that you can find in every other book. I understand this perspective when your a die hard fan and want to support them no matter what.
