PLEASE HURRY~ THXS In Antigone, Antigone argues with Creon during Scene 2.

Why does Sophocles include this argument?

to show that Antigone acted mercifully in giving her brother a burial, but Creon's lack of mercy leads to his and Antigone's downfall

to show that only the gods are capable of mercy, which is why Creon and Antigone are given opportunities to avoid their downfalls

to show that both Creon and Antigone acted mercifully, but Creon's excessive mercy is the source of his downfall

to show that neither Antigone nor Creon is capable of acting mercifully, which leads to both of their downfalls

to show that neither antigone nor creon is capable of acting mercifully which leads to both of their downfalls

d. because santiago thought any sharks would assume the marlin was part of the boat

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
