"Sin never dies" 153
Carrie's mother says this, but I can't help but feel that King tries to say something with this line. I don't think King is one for redemption and neither am I. Really its the belief that you can never take back what you gave done in the past, ie sin, but you can better yourself in the future by learning what you have done which I think is the moral overall in the story. Sue tries to redeem herself with Carrie by making Tommy take her, but that ends up in disaster as is Carrie tries to redeem herself in front of her piers and Momma tries to religiously redeem herself from her having pre-marital sex. In other words every story has a moral and this one is that you can only move forward and learn.
