Contrasting Dr. Faustus's writing with mine

Faustus has this rating that consists of: magic, religion, law, medicine, and philosophy/scholarship.  And that is compared to mine of: religion, family/happiness, medicine, philosophy/knowledge.  I put religion first because I think that God is the most important person in my life.  I've been through a lot, and I have him to help guide me through things.  Also my family is there too, so that puts my two best things at the top of my list.  I actually am surprised that Faustus didn't include money in his list.  Because he seems very greedy and I think he is a little stuck up.  But his list compared to my list is about the same.  But comparing to today's world, it would be different because a lot of things have happened in our society that hasn't back then; obviously.  And with his writing that he had back then compared to ours now, it's different because we have all of this technology and the government seems to be more 'controlling' lets say, but there really wasn't much control back then as there is now.
