The question was "What lesson or meaning do you think this story held for the British audience of the Victorian Era?" This is for the story The Mark of the Beast by Rudyard Kipling. I was thinking that the answer was that the lesson was that just because someone believes in something different from what you believe it doesnt mean you should disrespect their things. The struggle between the Christian God and the gods of India resulted in a terrifying experience. I don't know if this is the right answer or not and if its not could i get some help on it? This is 40 points on this paper and i can't afford to get it wrong
