In "The Pardoner's Tale", Chaucer openly ridicules religious practices of the time.
First off, the Pardoner is a fraudster who doesn't even hide it. He openly talks about all of his methods of tricking people into paying him money. Just like the Catholic Church itself (at the time), he capitalizes on people's deepest and most irrational fear of eternal dam.nation, pardoning their sins in exchange for large sums of money. He doesn't even care if his customers are single mothers, widows, or other poor people. He carries around false relics which he sells to people. Most importantly, he doesn't hide it - and that is another important aspect of church practices which Chaucer criticizes through his work.
The greatest irony is that the Pardoner tells a story with a moral that greed is the root of all evil (as he repeats multiple times). His story is about three reckless hedonists who seek Death, only to find gold over which they will fight each other and die. Chaucer uses this story within a story to satirize the church's hypocrisy.
sorry but can u provide the topic also so i can read and answer
Dr. King makes his points in order from which they first occured so that the audience of whoever it be that reads the two excerpts can see and understand when the order of events took place. If they were to occur in random order, the audience would be confused and not understand the idea of the passage. Keeping things in order is key to having a strong excerpt, essay, poem etc.
