In Chapter Four, Roger Chillingworth and Arthur Dimmesdale have a debate about whether it is appropriate or desirable to reveal the truth about your actions. Dimmesdale says that it is ok to wait until Judgement Day and that some men would not be able to do good if people know the truth about them.
Chillingworth argues that telling the truth will make you feel better and that, if you don't tell the truth you are lying to yourself and to others.
How do you feel about this debate? Whose side are you on and why?

I think Roger Chillingworth is right in the debate because if you do something bad is better to tell now the secret when you are alive than wait to tell when you deat.
I think Roger Chillingworth is right in what he says about saying the truth will make you feel better,but
under the circumstances that Reverend Dimensdale were it was not easy for him, because he was a priest, he was not suppose to be comitting sin,
but we can see how Reverend Dimensdale try to evade Roger Chillingworth with hes wise answer.

I believe that dimmesdale is right in the dedate, because sometimes secrets not only would hurt you also others people feelins. In Addition if you tell the secret you cant do nothing about it if the person dont want to sorry you to repay the bad thing you have done to them.
Chilling worth argues that telling the truth will make you feel better .This correct in what to saying the true or a secret .you are quotient calm saying true .maybe him(her) to give the Pease or the resolution of a problem.

I think that Chillingworth is right about telling the truth to the people of boston because Dimensdale will fell better telling the truth and will make his life more easy and peaceful.

I think that the Reverend is in the fact that with the secrets
guilt can prick the conscience
