I amd writing a paper over how mark twain uses satire to criticize religion. My opening statement is: Helping a slave runaway and floating down the Mississippi river accompanied by two conmen appears to be the basis of a real adventure tale. My teacher has asked me to incorperate religion into this scentence by using a verb after Helping a slave runaway VERB... Im really confused and does anyone have any ideas?

And -- as a verb -- you need to spell it "run away" (two words). A "runaway" is a person.

didn't twain write a conversation with god at some point? "Teh Diaries of Adam and Eve". Must be something in there.

When incorporating religion into your opening statement about Mark Twain's use of satire, you can use a verb that emphasizes the impact or influence of religion on the act of helping a slave runaway. For example:

"Helping a slave runaway and condemning religious hypocrisy while floating down the Mississippi river accompanied by two conmen appears to be the basis of a real adventure tale."

In this revised sentence, the verb "condemning" is used to convey the criticism of religion, specifically its hypocrisy, which aligns with Twain's satirical approach. By incorporating this verb, you highlight the way Twain uses satire to critique religion within the context of the adventure tale.
