Q&A Slumdog millionaire blog #3 The Burden of a Priest

     In the third chapter The Burden of a Priest, Ram talks about his childhood and story of when he was a baby. I found his story really sad and depressing which was the reason why he ended up being a slumdog and an un-educated child. The story was about his memory of him being born in an J. J. Women's Hospital on the day of Christmas but was abandoned by his mother and had a visual of the scene when she ran out of the hospital during the night and wrapped Ram in a blanket to keep him comfortable when she placed him in a bin. I find that part really sad but he was found by the Sisters of St Mary who ran an orphanage, he was put up for adoption. Unfortunetly no one wanted to take him because of his looks and the way smiled, but Mr and Mrs Thomas decided that they did. Sadly, Mrs Thomas ditched Mr Thomas for someone else, so Mr Thomas decided to take the baby and give it to Father Timothy (Priest) because he thought it was bad luck. After that, Father Timothy took care of the baby until he turned older and Ram thought of Father Timothy as his actual loving father but eventually two other people came and told Father Timothy that the baby could have been Hindu or Muslim so they came up with the name Ram Mohammad Thomas. Eventually, Father Timothy was killed by the two people and Ram's memories of that will never fade away. Although that story related to the who wants to be a Billionaire question which was "What is the sequence of letters normally inscribed on a cross? Is it a) IRNI b) INRI, c) RINI or d) NIRI and he answered correctly with b) INRI because of the white cross he saw at church.
