Answer: In Maycomb, people practice religion but many of them still have prejudices against black people, which is not ethical. This demonstrates the hypocrisy in their society.
Explanation:
<em>To Kill a Mockingbird</em> is set in the fictional town of Maycomb. Scout says that in Maycomb, everyone goes to church (except for the Radleys). Although people are religious, they seem not to follow their religion outside the church. This is embodied in their prejudices against black people, Tom Robinson in particular. He is found guilty by the jury only because he is a black man. There is no evidence to prove his guilt, but the fact that he is black makes him suspicious in the eyes of white people. Atticus, on the other hand, practices what he preaches. He defends Tom, and does not judge him by the color of his skin.
