Different strokes for different folks.

I personally think that one of the major points of the book was that scared people are not likely to behave in a very heroic way or to be very ethical. Some of them certainly try to, though.

And under the given circumstances Yossarian even contrived to appear to be a decent person. I actually like him. There're really a lot of parallels between "Catch" and some stories about the concentration camps (I live in a post-Soviet country, so I'm really well acquainted with the topic).

Sorry that you were forced to study a book that you hated (it is compulsory, as far as I understand?)
