The connection that Arthur Miller makes between adultery (s-x) and diabolism in his famous play, The Crucible (1953), exposes the immorality of the affair between Abigail and John Procter when the former was a domestic servant of John's wife.
- Marriage is a sacred affair between one man and one woman. When this natural and divine principle is violated, adultery (illicit relationship) is promoted.
- Mankind and the Divine frown at it because they create unpalatable consequences both for society and the individuals involved.
- Somebody can claim that it does not matter because one is involved. But does it matter if your spouse is the one doing the adultery? Will it be acceptable to you? Nobody's conscience allows it when the role is reversed.
Thus, Miller tries to show that witchcraft, McCarthyism, and adultery are the same because they are actions produced out of diabolism or wickedness.
