Abstract

Organized religion epitomizes man's need to give order and meaning to his life. Philosophy represents his effort to rationalize the principles of his faith and conduct. Acceptance of God or an all-powerful supreme being who governs the universe remains the cornerstone of most major religions, but the fate of civilization depends upon the actions of the individual. Yet, people often invest too much of themselves in their personal philosophies. Allowing one's beliefs to determine his behavior may prove spiritually beneficial, but allowing those morals to dictate his emotions minimizes the human experience. Adherence to a strong belief system denotes weakness of character.
In the novel Fathers and Sons, inflexibility of beliefs leads to self-destruction
