"I always used to think of myself as a bishop, a headmaster, a judge. I was always ashamed of thinking about things like that. Always I have to do what others want" (Chapter 7). "I could not escape a feeling that this was my own funeral, and you do not cry in that case. It was the first funeral I had ever attended" (Chapter 11). "I did not cry then or ever about Finny. I did not cry even when I stood watching him being lowered into his family’s strait-laced burial ground outside of Boston" (Chapter 13). These quotes showcase Gene's internal struggles with dishonesty, guilt, and lack of emotional connection towards Finny, further highlighting his complex character.
Thomas Malthus said that the human population is going to decrease over the years because there are not enough fod resources to sustain the growing/exponential population. So there will be competition and the most FIT will get the food, reproduce, and spread their genes. This is the basis of Darwin's theory, that scarcity of resources, territory, etc. leads to the most fit to survive from competition and thus the survivors will therefore create more babies and their genes will be passed to the next generation, thereby creating more species with those fit genes.
No, hemophilia is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the genes responsible for blood clotting, and it is not directly caused by inbreeding. Inbreeding can increase the likelihood of inheriting genetic disorders, including hemophilia, if the mutation is present in the family's gene pool.
