As we begin reading and discussing Brave New World, you will find that it raises some rather thought provoking issues, some of which are incldued in this post. For your second post of the semester, choose one of the following statements and discuss whether or not you agree with it. Please be thoughtful and thorough in your post.
* It is better to be simply content than to feel the extreme highs AND lows of life.
* It is important to conform to society.
* American culture is largely based on consumerism: one cannot achieve success or happiness without reaching financial and material success.
*The media is at fault for corrupting society and its citizens.
Feel free to take this in any direction, but again, please be thoughtful and thorough.
