Religion provides a background that a person will always be able to carry with them. Even if a person does not believe in religion, science provides the same advantages. They both explain how and why this Earth and everything on it was created. Both also provide a group that a person can belong to.

Batman as Joker, and Spiderman as the Green Goblin. Portraying heroes as villains and the latter as heroes was his specialty. In order to make this work, Stephen Crane not only depicted both sides of a character, but also lived in his own contradictions.
