An antagonist is defined as a person who is opposed to‚ or the "bad guy." In Cool Hand Luke and One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest the Captain and Nurse Ratchet played this role‚ respectively. They both appeared to be what I would call and "control freak." Although Nurse Ratchet and the Captain are similar characters‚ I feel that their need and reason for control‚ as well as their methods‚ differ.

The marriage of Cana appearing only in the Gospel of John 1:1-11 is an intriguing glimpse into the character of Mary. In the scene‚ Mary complains to Jesus that the wedding party is running out of wine. In one of his first apparent miracles‚ Jesus changes water into wine and saves the host of the wedding from social embarrassment. The inclusion in the Gospel raises many questions and areas for speculation. The first and most obvious question is whose wedding is it? If the responsibility to provide
