Brit lit study hall yay =D

Brave New World is similar to today's future in that our society does have more of a tendency now to take life less seriously, or in that life really isn't as valued as it once was. An example, really we have all these crazy people that just take others lives like its nothing (not saying that didn't happen back in the day but we here a lot about it now), or drugs and sex are more commonly accepted its like ok life is just a game. Society today is trying to get rid of all the reprcussions that would normally come from your actions. Example today society says go ahead have sex its no big deal, and if u get pregnant w/e you can just get an abortion its no big deal. See there is no value in life. You can just take short cuts to avoid consequences. Go ahead eat as much and as often as you want you can get ur stomach stapled or cosmetic surgery. Do what u want destroy ur body u can get surgery to fix it. Also society says you need to look this way to be attractive we just don't value our selves any more which is like this book because there is a standard and everyone has to b that way and no one has to worry about consequences. They may all think they're happy but when it comes to morals they have none and they are nothing more than children incapable of self control.
