The Moral Choice

In the story of Antigone, Antigone is deals with a choice she has to make that will either have her be in trouble with the law or do what she know is right and protect her morals. In the story, Antigone fallows what she knows is right but suffers the consequences. I believe her choice was adequate because you should fallow what you believe is right, and all that stuff. Furthermore Antigone’s story is one of a corrupt higher power. This reminds me of someone of great virtue living in Nazi Germany, seeing all the injustices going on around him, and thinking, hey that’s not cool. This man then stands up against a higher corrupt power for what he knows is right. Unfortunately like Antigone this man probably had deathly consequences.
