Why doesn't Parris want to tell anyone that Betty is bewitched?

The community of Salem will use it against him and claim that witchcraft is present in his own household. Therefore, he is putting his job, reputation and possibly other material benefits (such as his house) he has because of being Minister at risk. In The Crucible, it is evident that Parris's motive is driven by his desire for material things (golden candlesticks, requesting title deeds for his house). Parris aims to protect these benefits.


Explain how you would convince a group of people to adapt to a concept that they are reluctant to embrace?

If they are reluctant, then it will be very difficult to convince them of anything because their mind is closed to your concept. For instance, a group of liberals trying to convince a group of conservatives that abortion is okay. That would never happen. If a belief is strong enough and stems from upbringing and values, it is nearly impossible for anyone to change it. With time, people may become softer and rationalize a little, becoming more open minded, but I have never known anyone to change their core beliefs or values instantly.
