This novel shows us an emotional weakness of human being and tells us that everything around us has a meaning. You can
feel that life is consisted of little accidents but you can make your life lively with one intention, your will. After reading this,
I gave smile to Macon s future.

 Different Communities in Fiction is the topic of how people get organised to survive in an unreal, here disastrous, situation.
As these people have all lived in the former so-called  normal world, their minds are already carrying prejudices and settled
ideas. Such ideas can be various types of living together. The question is now, which of them is the most likely to help the
victims to live.
In  The Day of the Triffids there are two contrary and therefore interesting examples. The first one is based on a religious
principle, the second one on a scientific principle. The religious, or in this case even christian community, is dominated by
the belief in God and so in a providential help. It s conservative, which means that the members try to live according to
their conscience in helping needing people. This generous  way of God hides a lack of knowledge, which proves to
become fatal in the book. In fact, in welcoming increasingly more people, a plague is carried into the community.
The second and scientific group is based on the  ratio . It means that the adepts try to make exclusive use of their brains. No
feelings, beliefs or states of conscience have to interfere. From previous experiences these people have a fair amount of
knowledge, which is to be used and developed in order to combat the triffids and daily threats to their existence. This
community is turned towards the future. It s aware of past scientific achievements and is sure to be able to cope with any
other demands. Here the individual being counts little; either you accept the principle or you leave.
These two opposite ways of thinking in the first and second community are not only real in the fiction world of  The Day of
the Triffids . In our world of the 21st century different groupments exist, too. We have religious fanatism arguing against pure
scientific knowledge, which excludes the individuality.
In my opinion none of the two communities are likely to survive in longer terms. The only way would be to join, as the one
completes the other. I cannot imagine how people would bear to live only for the future & in passing on their genes.
