Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch

The authors satirize religion mercilessly in the novel, while also suggesting that belief systems are important to live a life of consequence. Explain this apparent paradox.

While the characters and references in Good Omens are mostly British, Americans make the occasional appearance. What do these references say about the authors’ attitude toward the United States? Is it any better or worse than their attitude toward their home country?

Explain how the novel treats the philosophical question of free will. How do Aziraphale and Crowley feel about it? Give some examples.
