The answer is A. Humans are too vain and shouldn't take their safety for granted.
In both the novel and the radio version of war of the worlds the theme of human vanity is prevalent. It will be the arrogance and stupidity of man that will cause our eventual downfall. We need to be less ignorant as a species and aware of the possibility that we are not alone in the world. Human beings are not all that exist in the vastness of the universe.

The Red Badge of Courage documents Henry's growth and maturity as a soldier through the changes in his personality and behavior. During this transition, Henry's emotions run the gamut from glory to fear to depression to anger to exhilaration to courage to honor. His personality and behavior move from innocence to experience, in essence from doubt to duty.  Henry's maturing process occurs very quickly. In the span of just a few days, Henry experiences a lifetime's worth of growth — from his enlisting for self-centered reasons of glory, to the exhilaration of his first battle, to his running from his second battle for fear of being killed, and, ultimately, to his facing the enemy and leading a charge as he becomes one of the bravest soldiers in his regiment. Several examples from the novel illuminate the changes which take place in Henry's character and in their relationship to the themes of doubt and duty.
