3) John and Mond's discussion

In the intense discussion between John and Mond it is clear that Mond would rather have it that the citizens of the World happy and content with the life they are presented. John has the opposite mind set. While it does seem that life would be great with no worries or issues to deal with in life, Mond’s ideal world also lacks individuality and overall goodness. John argues that while Mond may believe that people are better off with strict control in their lives, it doesn’t allow them to actually live. People need to experience deep feelings and disasters and be able to live as they choose. John believes no one can be truly happy without all parts of life; the good and the bad.
You would think that a world without danger or fear would be the most perfect place to live. However, no one can really think that it would be perfect. No freedom could exist if you wanted a life like this. You have to give up something to gain something in life, but you need to actually think if it is worth the loss. Mond would agree that all freedoms are worth giving up for a community of people that live with no cares and their life is already set out for them. He can not see that it is the individuality of people that makes the World so great. John tries to explain this to Mond, but he will hear nothing of it. It interesting though that in the end John kills himself.
