Sue Whatley’s article The Thin Blue Line of Theodicy: Flannery O’Connor, Teilhard de Chardin, and Competitions between Good/Good and Evil/Evil. Religions (2018) discusses the concept of deciding good or evil from a religious standpoint. Whatley brings up this point in which she moves the reader in the complications of just not good and evil but good and evil behaviors as well. The story details how in her last moments the grandmother had prayed for the misfit which can appear as a last good deed in praying for his soul. In the story, the misfit had a choice of either killing the family or letting the family live. The author is writing to a general audience to debate the choice individuals face on a daily on deciding between good and evil.
