    There are many universal conflicts that "The Crucible" deals with, but here are a couple of the most notable themes. The conflict of good vs. evil is perhaps the most striking, as everybody is obsessing over it, but hardly anyone can really know what is good and what is evil in their particular situation. Hypocrisy, that is truth vs. lie, is a closely related theme - the plot is based on a lie that women are performing witchcraft, and many people suffer or die because of it. Also, the concept of heavenly justice vs. human injustice gets inverted. Even though the Puritan society is based on interpreting the God's idea and order of justice, in reality it turns out to be something else. All the ministers believe that God is speaking his truth through the children's mouth. They don't realize that the children have invented the story.
