"Son, promise me yuh'll stop hatin' long enuff fer Gawd's love t' come inter yo' heart"(285).
We get the sense here that Bigger isn't really a religious man, even though raised up in a religious environment (his mother). This is important because even though the "curtain" has been pushed aside Brigger still refuses to accept one of the only people or ideas that could "set him free" from his current situation. Although he wishes for hope, he doesn't wish it from anything which is sort of weird considering that the majority of the worlds population would turn to God/prayer in a situation like this.
Do you think Bigger has any faith at all in God or in himself at this point?
Why is Bigger now "unprotected" or unable to hide behind anything?
