What is the moral to the book, the fire within?
You mean The Fire Within by Chris D' Lacey? If it is then all I can say is that their isn't really a main moral but there are many little ones. I suggest you read the other books 1-5.
What is the moral of the Book Catcher in the Rye?
If there is a moral, it would be something about the harshness of innocence (Holden sees all adults as hypocrites) becoming the wisdom of experience (tact, convention, and politeness are necessary forms of hypocrisy). So, the harshness of a child's judgemental naivete can become the understanding and patience of an adult.
What are some easy-to-read books on atheist morals?
What are some easy-to-read books on atheist morals?There are NO atheist morals. Atheism is not a world view. It is a single answer to a binary choice question. That question being “Do you believe in any gods?”Atheists get their morals from various world views, just like theists. Most Christian’s morals are actually secular morals. Most Christians don’t think that many things they are commanded to do in the Bible would be moral. They just tend to cherry pick. The morals most seem to really cling to aren’t even Christian or even Jewish but predate Judaism and predate all religions.Now many atheists might share similar world views but those world views are separate from atheism. IE theists could just as easily hold the world views. IE you can be a humanist and be a theist. You can be a consequentialist and be a theist. The belief or lack of belief in gods doesn’t dictate or exclude most positions on the moral landscape.That said Mortality by Christopher Hitchens is good. It is a compilation of essays he wrote on the subject matter of morality. Again I’d argue this isn’t atheist morality. It is a discussion about morality by someone who was an atheist. There are plenty of theists that put out good books on morality. These tend to be theists that think about why things are moral or not rather than just accepting barbaric stances from 2,000 years ago.
What is the moral of the story in the book The Pact my Jodi Picoult?
No. There is always a moral to Picoult's books. Look deeper. It's been a long time since I've read The Pact, so I don't remember the whole plot that well. I will give you an example though. In her book, My Sister's Keeper... haven't seen the movie, but maybe you have... the moral of the story could be many different things. It could be to respect your child's body. It could be to respect your sister's wishes. It could be that she simply wanted everyone to look from a different point of view than a person would normally look at an edgy story from. I'll give you a hint. That last one would probably go for any of her books. She wants you to look beyond public opinion at the details and the personal struggles behind a story. Go from there...

What was the moral of Twilight?
Twilight's moral (to me) was that you don't choose who you fall in love with. it can be the person you want or it can be someone you don't expect. But when the heart chooses that's it. For New Moon i think it was that the person you love the most will break your heart sometimes but there will always be someone there to put it back together when you feel like your world is falling apart. and that sometimes things that people do to hurt you are done with the best intention at heart(not because they wanted to hurt you) For Eclipse (i was so mad at this book the 1st time i read it, lol) I'd say that love is full of choices and sometimes to be sure you make the right choice you have to go know what you'll be missing out on or what you could have...options. and that every choice made has consequences for everyone, and you just have to live with it. ohhh and one of my favorite is from Charlie himself, " The right thing isn't always real obvious. Sometimes the right thing for one person is the wrong thing for someone else. So...good luck figuring that out."
Are Harry Potter books good at the moral level?
The main trouble with the series is that some of their moral lessons tend to be a bit lightly touched on, and others are a bit off.They’re very good at bringing attention to the importance of things like friendship, self-reliance, and altruism. They’re quite clear on how crimes like murder are wrong and should be punished.However, there are two very strong lessons that probably have been countered somehow:Adults will not help you. (Because it’s a series aimed at teens, it’s expected that the protagonists would be teens. However, pretty much every adult is unhelpful in some way: ineffectual, stubborn, unreliable, too caught up in their own things, or antagonistic, and that’s taking things a bit far.)Important people get away with a lot, no matter what you do. (The first part is a lesson worth giving, but it shouldn’t come in a bundle of learned helplessness. There are a lot of really nasty people in the books, and there are a lot of nicer people who do nasty things, but other than the ones who are killed outright, no-one really ever pays for their crimes. And I don’t mean through karma or anything; I mean through the actions of law enforcement and the judicial system.Then there are the smaller moral issues themselves. Again, it would be wrong to expect a full treatment of any of these points in a young adult series, but a bit more depth (or maybe a little less subtlety) would be nice. Some of them are fairly trivial — it would be nice if someone had mentioned to Molly Weasley that ordering someone about when she’s a guest in their home is not socially acceptable behaviour; others are nauseating — date rape drugs (aka “love potions”) are used and approved of by characters on all sides, without any real attempt to point out that they’re pretty evil.So… from the moral end of things, I’d say the series does a good job with some of the big, easy questions, but rather less well at the smaller or more subtle ones.
What is the Moral of Tom Sawyer?
The moral of the story is that being naughty is not the same as being bad and that the good guys always win, in the end. So, go ahead and be naughty, as long as you remain good at heart. Tom is often mischievous and manipulative but he is never wicked. He does not hurt anyone or even wish any pain or suffering on anyone. Basically, he is a high-spirited kid, but still just a kid, and a good kid, too. Tom is what the average, normal middle-class kid is, even today. Huck Finn (Tom's friend) is a different matter. Huck has serious problems and he deals with them in a very serious way.
The Host, What was the moral of the story ?
I think the moral of the story is something along the lines of: Is what you're told the right thing to do, really the right thing to do? (Because Wanderer is told that its the right thing to take over Earth when it's not.) And then another moral could be: Even if you want it, is it right to take what you want or to give it up for the better? (Because even though Wanderer wants Ian, Melanie (and her body) wants Jared so she gives up having Ian so Melanie can have Jared.) But then it all pays off because she gets Ian in the end anyways.
