E G Entry 2

^^What is the major theme of Ender's game? why is this theme important to a teenager living in 2007?

I think the theme of this book is, violence carries another violence.
It is human nature to revenge and get even and feel great when someone gets pay back.

In the Enders Game, the buggers and humanity have fought for many times; so they hate each other. The war will continue, if one side isn't completely destroyed, but Ender was smart enough to decide to make a peaceful treaty with the buggers, giving them another place to live.

God said, "Forgive and love your enemy," this passage in the bible makes sense, because hating and cursing each other leads to no good ending. Almost all teenagers go to school and have many questions, conflicts and problems; violence is not a way to handle that. Like Ender at the beginning of the book, he almost killed Stillson,, and if he would have went back to school the day after, he could have got beaten by Stillson's other gangmembers. So people should forgive each other rather than to fight.
