1. The type of sinners in circle five are people who held anger in their hearts, were sullen, and were full of wrath. They live in a marsh called Styx. They are immersed in mud and souls lie under the mud making bubbles with each cry. There is fighting going on constantly. People always hitting, screaming, and biting. There is never any peace.
2. I think that this particular punishment was chosen for these sinners because when they should have been happy in the light of the sun and they were not, now they will live sullen forever.
3. To be wrathful and sullen is a sin in the christian religion. The Bible teaches us to turn the other cheak. It also says in the Bible not to let the sun go down on ones wrath.
4. On example of pagan influences in circle 5 is that circle 5 is the last circle of upper hell. Also, the fact that there are different levels of hell and different punishments for the different sinners. Sin is sin not matter how great or small.
5. One person that Dante places in circle 5 is Filippo Argenti.
6. Dante would probably place Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston in circle 5. I am sure that they are very angry toward one another. Although they haven't been in an actual fight, they probably would if they had a chance.

I would name a few people that fit into this category, but I'm afraid of offending someone because of my political leanings. There are a few political figures, though, that have been really angry, and really mad for a long time. They'll even admit it. Makes me wonder if Dante's political views figured into who he put in hell?
I guess i can see where the punishment fits the crime in this level. I think its funny that yall put Jennifer Aniston in this level.
I think that in this level it would show that it is not good to hold anger in and be bitter with hatred. The constant fighting going on is a result of the anger in their hearts and them holdling grudges. I bet here the people wish they would have forgave and gotten over the things that they could not let go of.
This level is interesting. I think that most of us deal with this sin at times. It is very hard to always be happy. I thought the example of who would be put in there today was too cute. Y'all did some creative thinking!
This punishment seems to be appropriate for the sin. People holding anger in their heart and that are wrathful maybe they already live a life that is punishing to them with so much torment they go through here on earth.
I understand why these people are in the mud. They should have been able to let somethings go. Everything that happens, happens for a reason so they should have calmed down and thought about it.
