Chapter 12 Journal

The soldier at the end of the novel is a huge hypocrite. He scolds the boys for behaving improperly yet he will soon go out and do the same thing to his "Jack" or 'Ralph". When I first read the novel I was infuriated by Jack and how his lust for power had caused on the rifts on the island. However, after time thinking I believe Ralph had just the same amount of blame. He failed to compromise ideologies with Jack and made Jack feel inferior. I don't believe you can group this plot as something as simple as good vs. evil. We have no idea what is evil. Something made Jack feel that way whether it was bad childhood or Ralph diminishing his value. In Jack's eyes Ralph was evil because he didn't allow him to have fun and called something important to him(hunting) as useless. Roger is simply a psychopath and being a psychopath is classified as an illness. Illness makes someone become an exception to evil, as we see in court cases of insane murder cases. We can't comprehend evil. Ralph cries at the end of the novel because he can't understand the horrible things people had done. I don't despise any of the characters except maybe Wilfred because that's a stupid name. Absolutely I would recommend this to a person as long as they would think about what  they are reading.

Chapter 11 Test

1.Ralphs groups decide they must confront jack about Piggy and his glasses.

2.They are seeing Ralph for the first time because he is basically alone he is no longer the chief, and their seeing his true leadership.

3.Ralph and crew are outnumbered and they will not breach the savages mindsets since they are boring.

4.Roger pushes the rock to kill Piggy because its fun for him and it was probably funny for him and he laughed LOL.

5.When the conch was destroyed it marked the end of order and democracy.

6. For boys a chief gives them order and lets them mindlessly follow orders without pressure effort to make choices.

7.How was your childhood like?
Why are you so preoccupied in being the best?

8.Savagry now rules the island. Jack and his right hand man Roger have successfully used fear to preside over everyone. The boys do not resist since being with Jack is fun in their eyes. They get meat and get to run around as long as they obey the new chief.
        Ralph is now a wanted man. They have eyes set on him to kill him. Jack has deceived the boys into believing Ralph is a threat to their safety.  There is no hope on this island anymore.

Chapter 10 Lord of the Flies

1. Ralph feels extremely guilty as if he could've done something to prevent it. he knows that was straight up murder.
"That was Simon...That was murder"(Golding 156)
Piggy tries to convince the others that was all just a huge accident and they had nothing to be guilty about even insisting it was partly Simons fault as he had looked batty."It was an accident, that's what it was" (Golding 157).
Samneric try to convince themselves they were not at the scene of the crime. "We were very tired.... so we left early (Golding 158).

2. Ralph believes it was a murder he is the only one who has rightfully accepted it as murder. He feels a lot of guilt and remorse. "That was murder." (Golding 156)
Jack on the other hand feels no guilt, he thinks he protected his tribe from the beast who came disguised as Simon. The beasts may even come again. "He came disguised. He may even come again"(Golding 160)

3.Jack is a ruthless ruler who rules through oppression and fear. He makes people obey him by getting them fear for him. Anyone who doesn't obey gets punished like Wilfred.
"He didn't say. He got angry and made us tie Wilfred up"(Golding 159).

4.Jack is now the chief. His hunters and savages now call him chief not Ralph.He now owns the fire which means all hope now relies on savagrey.
