When they gather around for the first time after Ralph summons them, he declares “We’ll have rules…lots of rules! Then when anyone breaks ‘em-.” (Golding 33). The boys are excited to have rules; they are comforted by this thought, even Jack, who is in obvious competition with Ralph to become chief from the very start. They are welcoming to the thought of punishment if rules are broken, because this is how they function in their civilized lives. When Jack finds out there are animals on the island, he wants to hunt them.
Ralph by being a civilized leader that put rules labors so they can survive. Jack by being the degradation of civilization, he began by following Ralph’s rules and contribute by forming a group of hunters so they can eat, but then he began to disobey them and form a tribe of hunters that actually was a group of savage Indians. Piggy by being mature represented the intellectual and reasonable part by telling the kids what is happening, to wake them up and make them think. And Simon helped everyone in the group and talked about the part in humans by talking to the “Lord of the Flies”, that is the head of a sow that is buried into the ground and it was named like that because it was surrounded by flies; the Lord of the Flies represents Beelzebub (the devil). Simon represented Jesus that was the man that helped people and talks about evil that is inside us, that
This implies that Ralph understands that, to continue to live, the boys should have order and realise that they are completely in control of their actions, as there is no parent to tell them what is the best thing to do, and what should be avoided. Whereas, Ralph leads by consensus of opinion, he holds meetings where plans are put forwards and agreed to by all. Ralph shows some consideration towards the ‘littluns’, leaving Piggy to look after them when the ‘biguns’ go off to hunt the beast. In comparison when Robert says that to play the pig hunting game they needed a real pig in order to kill it Jack suggested using a ‘littlun’, which all the other boys assumed was a joke. Ralph is honest, compared to Jack, who lied when he said that Ralph had called the hunters cowards.
Foer begins by challenging the reader to an interesting thought experiment. What if we ate man's best friend? That's right, what if cute little Fido was food? What are the societal and personal implications that the Western world sees certain animals like dogs as friends and others, like chickens and pigs, as food? And he has the numbers to back up his proposed canine cuisines.
Although there seems to be an attraction between the two we learn that the relationship is platonic. The third part of the book is Sensei’s story. This part reveals the older man completely bare and laid out. The story has many passages that struck me as important. However I feel like the most important is “You seem to be under the impression that there is a special breed of bad humans.
He thinks of building shelters to protect them and to start a fire for their rescue. He becomes friend with Piggy, the fat boy that receives taunts and teases from the other boy, and gets used to rely on Piggy's intellectual reasoning. Ralph is brave when the occasion presents it, but he really miss for the secure world of adults, especially when order starts to break down on the island. He dreams about a rescue and insists that the signal fire always has to burn so that they can be seen. Ralph considers that the main reason for the disorder on the island is Jack, the antagonist and representation of evil in the novel.
He does a great job supporting his opinion that we should be able to eat animals, by using narratives, compare and contrasts, and citing experts that he researched. Not only did his thesis recognize the problem of animal cruelty but, it also proposed a solution which fortified his article. Pollan’s use of narratives brought perspective to his article which. In his opening paragraph, Pollan sets himself at a restaurant, eating steak while reading Peter Singer’s book “Animal Liberation.” Pollan uses the book his reading to address his problem as a meat eater. Pollan uses this narrative to make a personal connection with the reader by hinting to the reader that they too have a moral obligation to question whether eating meat is right.
They can do what they want, and they will always get away with it. How do they do it? They tell lies and spread propaganda. When the pigs do something wrong, they make up an overcomplicated reasoning so that the other animals don’t understand, but will believe what they’re being told. Also, when the animals question them, the pigs change the commandments in their favor.
It is also against the law to kill game for just the rack, tail, ect., and just a waste of meat. If someone who has a passion for hunting has no need or use for the acquired game, he can still make use of it by donating the meat to public help organizations or local soup kitchens. (Henry Garner) That is an average of 72 lbs. of meat that could be donated and used for good. (Zen Cart) Meat processors also make it for packaging.
Corporal Morales, my team leader, and I got the usual disgusting meal ready to eat packages the government provided for us troops. “Hey bro, hook it up with the beef stew” said Morales. “I got you big guy” I replied. Morales sat on a small chair he had built himself out of extra pieces of wood and devoured his meal as he cursed at it. “Nasty ass food man, but I’m so hungry” said Morales.
