If narrated by Jonah, I think life at MHS would be very different. If all Bokonists ran MHS, since in Jonah’s opinion, the teachers would be like “Bokonons,” and they would be teaching their students in class trying to become Bokonists. Jonah would probably have Mr. **** as the ambassador of the “island.” Since he doesn’t leave his office normally. He doesn’t teach any classes, but yet all of his wisdom is spread throughout the school. I think the classes would function all around lies. The teachers would teach them the wrong things and say it’s the right thing. What do the students know? Just how in Cat’s Cradle, when you’re taught something and you don’t have the evidence to say it’s wrong, you just believe it. For example, with the ice-nine. It started out as such a made belief object, but then through Jonahs writing, he transformed it into a real live substance.
