Argument: Needful Things is a satirical horror story. Claims: Society is too dependent upon the ideas of religion, we are not only ignorant of each other, but we trust each other too much. Evidence: "In every case, possessions bring out the worst in people. They think that acquiring things will make them happy, but they are paying for un-needful things with their precious humanity: They only feel more unhappy and more isolated in their misery. Needful Things is an indictment of the American consumer culture." (delaney)
