"It is impossible that there will not be situations of conflict," said Angelo Bottini, Rome's archaeological superintendent. Neither the subway workers nor the archaeologists can decide whether a find should be removed, destroyed, or encased within the subway structure. According to Italy's strict conservation laws, that will be up to Bottini. Over the years, countless construction projects have been scrapped across Italy because ancient objects were unearthed there. Sometimes, developers deliberately failed to report a find and plowed through ancient treasures so that they could complete their projects. In Italy, and in Greece, too, workers and archaeologists have to preserve their history while accommodating the need for new subway lines.

Presenting a God who is vengeful and angry over the sinful ways of is people, Edwards reveals how the relationship with God is diminishing and could lead to everyone in "hell". But then, towards the end of his sermon, he presents God as someone who is forgiving, ever ready to welcome anyone who would seek his forgiveness. This allows the change from an 'evil and angry' God to a God of 'forgiveness, love and understanding'.
Explanation:
In his sermon "Sinners In The Hands of An angry God", Jonathan Edwards presents an image of God who is to be feared, 'vengeful, bitter' and always ready to inflict punishment over the world. In his zeal to bring the people back to the right fold, he uses 'scaring tactics' to try to threaten them into leaving their sinful practices and approach God and ask for forgiveness.
He puts God as someone who'll "cast wicked men into hell at any moment", for rightly they "deserve the be cast into hell". The image of hell as a "lake of burning brimstone" also captures the listeners' attention, which Edwards hopes, will bring them to God. In these ways, he uses the 'angry' face of God in trying to persuade the people to turn away from sin. He continuously used the word "the wrath of God" in his statements, bringing into account the dangerous perils that await anyone who still refuse to turn to God.
But towards the end of the sermon, he seemed to change his stance in his depiction of the image of God. He mentions how "Christ has thrown the door of mercy wide open", ready to accept anyone with open arms. He also used the questions such as "Are not your souls as precious as the souls of those who are flocking from day to day to Christ?" to imply the greatness that will be theirs if they come back to the Lord.
So, even though he presents God as a vengeful God, Edwards painted a more light, loving and ever forgiving picture of God towards the end of his sermon. Starting with an angry tone, accusatory and threatening tone, he ends the sermon in a more friendly, warm and 'heavenly' tone, so that listeners will feel the gracefulness of the merciful Lord.
