Faber

In that passage, Faber is telling Montag about how he isn’t a religious man anymore. He is saying how religion has changed so much and that it is hard to recognize what it originally was. How people that believe in Christianity have changed things around to how they think it is and not the original way. Faber is explaining that not only has the religion changed but also how people have dressed God up or down. Faber tells how he loves the smell of books. And he was explaining how books used to be so special. Then he got rid of his books and now he doesn’t have them and he feels guilty about it. And if people wouldn’t have gotten rid of the books everything would be different now. He said that he should have spoken up about the burning of the books and maybe he could have stopped them and kept books around. As he finished talking to Montag, he closes the Bible. I think that the Bible was his most important book he had and that’s why he kept it.
