Orwell states that perfection is not necessary and sainthood should be avoided. He knows that attachment and love and feelings can have harsh and undesirable consequences. Orwell successfully persuades the audience to agree to his position and throw out the very idea of sainthood and perfection. Orwell continues his position by outlining basic human nature and drawing a line between religion and humanity. Orwell uses concrete examples from Gandhi's autobiography to make him seem like a menace and a threat. Orwell makes the point that there must be a line between what sins to commit to keep us in existence and what is worth dying for. These concessions and refutations greatly develop Orwell's position and diminish Gandhi's argument. " Humans have always contemplated perfection and its many fine points,0 but Orwell rightly puts it that perfection is not necessary to live an extended, blissful life. " This builds the readers respect for Orwell by agreeing with a well-known authority on human enlightenment. He uses Gandhi's own teachings against him by morphing his words to make human emotions, such as love, seem almost unreasonable and untrue. Orwell believes that one must have a set limit to what one would die for and what one would do in order to stay alive. Orwell says that friends are dangerous, yes, but well worth the price of danger. He says, "The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection, that one is willing to commit sins for the sake of loyalty. Gandhi has said, "Love means nothing if it does not mean loving some people more than others. Some topics in this essay:
