Is lying an inevitable part of life? As long as people live and have free will‚ it seems some people will always choose to be untruthful therefore causing havoc with their choices. The Alchemist by Ben Jonson is a play unlike others of its time period. However‚ even it does not escape the flaws of our world such as lying.

THE ELIZABETHAN drama‚ undoubtedly‚ followed a natural law of development.

The first dilemma I saw was that of atheist professors using their positions of authority and respect to brainwash young students into believing as they themselves do. The second dilemma was that of institutions of learning disallowing research of Intelligent Design. It is incorrigible that professors
