Technology played a major role in how the citizens within Montag’s society in Fahrenheit 451 interacted with each other and how they responded to certain situations. The same can be said for today’s society. Mildred and her friends’ relationships with their husbands and children, or lack, thereof, are key examples of the effect of technology on their correlations with others.

While this thought may seem democratic, as religion reflects society’s

A common misconception in our society is that an individual does not want to make an effort to meet the community's needs. In order for a person to be successful--without repeating the same mistakes--the community must come together and meet its needs without infringing on the liberties of the people.

Society can be defined as a group of people associated together for having similar thoughts or lifestyles. In most cases, it is divided into smaller groups based on ideas such as money or status, and therefore are divided into the accepted ones and the rejects.. The rejects are looked down upon, and in some cases, even abandoned by society. They are left to survive on their own, and this typically makes for a negative impact on them. Take Grendel, for example. When his story begins, he is curious
