Blog Prompt: [1] Tell what you like or dislike about the current chapter in the book.----------------------------
During Arthur's travels, he encounters a group of people known as the "Krikkit". These people were peace loving and self sufficient on their own planet until a space shuttle crash landed on their planet. The Krikkit reverse engineered the space shuttle in order to build their own and went out searching the universe in exploration. However, they did not like what they witnessed and vowed to destroy all the species in a genocidical mission very similar to that of early Catholic religious history.
There are many parallels to the crusades of the early Catholic vatican and the people of Krikkit. Both went out and ventured to unknown lands and did not agree with the rest of the world, resulting in their overall choice to wage war on everyone whom did not agree with them. I find some of Douglas Adam's ideas to parallel greatly with history which is a great resource for a writer.
