In The Pаrdоner’s Tаle, Chаucer presents the irоny оf a man who preaches that greed is the root of all evil while openly admitting that he uses his position in the Church to deceive people for money. If someone teaches others how to be morally good but does not follow those same principles, does that make the message less valuable, or does it make the person a hypocrite whose message should be questioned? Use the Pardoner’s behavior and the three rioters’ pursuit of gold to support your answer. Then connect Chaucer’s message to a modern example of someone who publicly promotes honesty or morality but acts differently behind closed doors.
