Antigone vs Creon
I beleive that While Creon is doing what is right for his people, what he does is not a good idea. When he left the brothers corpse out to rot, he must have realised that someone would protest. The fact that the brother failed and was killed was a good enough example for the people and Creon should have givin him the right of a decent burial. Antigone is the person who is more correct on this one because she is doing what is moraly right. She may have gone too far in her protection of the corpse, but she was a better person than Creon.

What form of reasoning are you appealing to here? Can you derive a greater conclusion from the judgment you've made? What informs that judgment?
