What evidence from the radio broadcast war of the worlds supports the theme that huaman vanity can cause problems

The following dialogue taken from "The War of the Worlds" is an example of human vanity.

PHILLIPS: Then you're quite convinced as a scientist that living intelligence as we know it does not exist on Mars?

PIERSON: I'd say the chances against it are a thousand to one.

People believed the other "worlds" in space were inferior. They dismiss the possibility of life upon them and they did not think about the idea of humans being in danger.

The options:

O

A. PHILLIPS: Can you tell us the meaning of that scraping noise

inside the thing?

PIERSON: Possibly the unequal cooling of its surface.

O

B. PHILLIPS: Good heavens, something's wriggling out of the shadow

like a gray snake. Now it's another one, and another. They look like

tentacles to me. There, I can see the thing's body. It's large, large

as a bear and it glistens like wet leather.

C. PIERSON: I can give you no authoritative information - either as

to their nature, their origin, or their purposes here on earth. Of their

destructive instrument I might venture some conjectural

explanation. For want of a better term, I shall refer to the

mysterious weapon as a heat ray.

D. PHILLIPS: Then you're quite convinced as a scientist that living

intelligence as we know it does not exist on Mars?

PIERSON: I'd say the chances against it are a thousand to one!

The CORRECT ANSWER IS D.

D. PHILLIPS: Then you're quite convinced as a scientist that living

intelligence as we know it does not exist on Mars?

PIERSON: I'd say the chances against it are a thousand to one!

Explanation:

The conversation admist Phillips and Pierson, where Phillips enquired of him if he was sincerely assured as a researcher that living intelligence from our knowledge it's absent on Mars and he replied very confidently: "the chances against it are a thousand to one." Human vanity is expressed as Pierson assumes that the separate worlds in space were not Standard to that of Earth and never assumed the human being can come into danger from them.

The basic means in which H. G. Wells speaks of the theme of human vanity is by expressing how a lay man on Earth do consider the different planets. He expressed that the world was not set for the upset or war since individuals were too minded of this planet, and will not assume that intelligent beings are found elsewhere away from Earth. This implies the vanity of humans that led to their fall.
