brave New World Chapter 7(Blog 7)

Summery- Linina and Bernard fallow an older tribesman to the savage settlement and are shown that they don't have test tube babies. Bernard commented that they might be missing out on not having moms and family and that maybe Linina should have had kids. Linina finds the place very queer and they are then led to an area on the mountain that over looks part of the town, where a dance is preformed to bring the rain and so on. Then statues of an eagle and Jesus rise up from the underground part of the settlement and over look the wiping to death of a boy that walked around a pile of snakes as a sacrifice. Latter they meet John who want ed to be in the boy's place but wasn't allowed because he was different. The group then go to meet John's mom, Linda, was the woman that was in the story that the Directer had tolled. She had fallen, was found by the savages, and left unknowingly by the Directer who's name is Tomas. She was fat, ugly, and missing her world  when Linina and Bernard met her. She was worried that her son was acting to much like the savages and needed to be more like the people in her world. She then told them that the women here attacked her for acting like a normal person in the main world which in her perspective is the only way to live.
