As God doles out justice in Inferno is it fair or unfair? Explain.
I think that in Dante's Inferno when God judges people based on their actions while they were alive and then decides where to sent them to in Inferno, the place they are assigned is fair for what they have done if they have to be judged. However, I think that the initial judgment where God decides if you will go to hell or heaven is not fair. The law of God says that we should love all other individuals, with no exceptions. It also states that we must forgive everyone. I find that when God sends you to hell He himself is not following the rules he wants everyone else to follow as he should love every person and forgive whatever sins they have committed. Instead, he sends the sinners to hell, where they will suffer for eternity. Within this injustice there is still an organization method that allows an "appropriate" amount of suffering for each sinner. We can see in Inferno that hell has different rings, and each has a suffering level that matches a certain level of sins.

A. What is the difference between a blog and a book?
-> In my opinion, there are many differences between a blog and a book. First of all, most books are directed to a general audience while blogs target a specific crowd with very narrow and focused interests. Another difference is that a book has a strict format that must be used; paragraphs, punctuation, correct grammar, etc. A blog, on the other hand, can use whatever format and whatever means of communication it wants. While books are limited to words and in some cases images, blogs can contain anything form words to videos to links. Blogs are interactive and in some discussions and comments are allowed, and even encouraged. Books are very personal and have no room for discussion.
B. How have blogs changed recently?
-> Today blogs are different from what they were in the past mainly because of the increase in commentaries and narration from the author. Before, blogs used to serve as a link list for sites of interest to a common group of people. In the present authors comment and criticize nearly everything, and the links are provided as support and not as the main feature.
C. Why might you read a blog?
-> You might read a blog because you have an interest in the subject it deals with and you want to find out what other people think about it and maybe get the chance to comment on this view of the subject. A blog might be read because it is funny, because it has periodical postings but time in between them to rest from it, because it contains information presented in a lighter way, or maybe because people all around the world that are just like the common reader are the authors.
D. Is there reason to doubt the objectivity of a blog? Why? Why not?
-> I would always doubt the objectivity of a blog because people usually use blogs to express their opinions about specific subjects making it completely subjective. Also, the anonymity of the authors provides room for opinions that won't cause the author personal trouble, and because of this the probability of finding opinions in them is very likely.
E. Identify three blogs that mention our summer reading.
-> Three blogs that mention our summer reading are:
