__**//Part #2//**__

√ //Well said, Justin!// Section 2 - 3+
 * 1) Personally I wouldn't, because in the society in this book no one would believe me. They would only believe me if I was the Giver. But on the other side if I was the Receiver they still might not believe me. And if any one did very few would. //Do you have a list? Good reasons and Bad?//
 * 2) A couple things in the community such as; no choice, it has a controlled environment, and not being able to have any sort of feelings. It might not sound as bad as ''release". But if you think about it they are in some way. For example how would it feel if you were to have no form of choice (dictatorship) .Or to have never experienced rain, snow or even sun light. √
 * 3) Some of the good things are that there is little to no crime, no pollution and there is no war. But that isn't always a good thing, but some people would argue different. That it is better to be ignorant about some aspects of life. But that does not mean that they are all bad. √
 * 4) I think that Jonas is hallucinating at first and then dies. But not just dead but Jonas goes to elswere in the sky (heaven) "Downward, downward. Faster and faster. Suddenly he was aware with certainty and joy that below, ahead, they were waiting for him; and that they were waiting, too, for the baby. For the first time, he heard what he knew to be music. He heard people sining. Behind him, across vast distances of space and time, from the place he had left, he thought he heard music too. But perhaps it was just an echo."(the last paragraph) √
 * 5) Some of the lessons in the book are; that if you are ignorant about things isn't always a good thing. And how if you take away the bad things in life like choice, that can also mean taking away the good things in life. Also that it is near impossible to live in a utopian world.
