Hester Prynne: Public enemy Number One

Hester Prynne has questionable morals. Far more than questionable actually. To have had a child out of wedlock and choose not to identify the father? Despicable. She thinks that because she assumes that she's protecting him that she is brave and courageous. Well guess what honey, you're not. She stood in front of the settlement with her demon child with a smug look on her face like she knew something the rest of us didn't. The leaders should have locked her up for life. She is not only a disgrace to our town but to all the women who abide by the laws and God given rules. If anyone in this town was going to Hell I would bet my best candle sticks that she would meet the devil himself on judgement day. She even disrespects the core teachings of our church with her extravagant clothes. The Scarlet Letter 'A' that will brand her for life is made of bright red and gold string. She calls attention to herself even in the most humiliating situations.The fact that she stood for hours (exposed for the sinner that she is) and she still reeked of defiance and showed no sign of regret is appalling. Personally, I'm interested in in seeing how the Lord punishes Hester for her sins and if she's lucky, gives her the opportunity to repent and move back into the warm graces of God.
