Evil Clonation
His professors commented on Arthur being an extremely gifted person or a genius of some sort; but nobody knew what was happening with his genetically transmitted legacy of Adolf Hitler. Arthur started to change little by little; typically saluting like Hitler again to his classmates and teachers. He himself could not explain what he was doing and he even tried to unsuccessfully correct himself. P> When he was out of University, he rented movies of the Second World War and documentaries of Hitler. While seeing videos of the Holocaust and documentaries of the crimes committed in the Nazi Death camps, he commented to his mother, 'Mother, I still cannot understand why there was so much hatred towards the Hebrew race. If I had all the power that this man had I would have conquered the world in a pacific way, just by using the advanced technology that Germany possessed. However, Hitler's personality attracts me so much that I do not know what happens to me and sometimes I even feel and think like him.But I do not share his anti-humanistic views."
