Lord of the Flies

1. Did you know that "Lord of the Flies" is another name for the devil? The title of the book suggests that the author was interested in evil. Interestingly, all the evil was committed by the children and the "Lord of the Flies" never appears. Describe some of the evil you witnessed in the film. If you did not see the whole movie you can discuss any evil you have heard of in the news.

In the movie there was alot of evil/bad things that was happening. One of them is that a group of kids killed three people on the island. Another is that there was swearing alot to each other and not showing respect to one an others.

2. How responsible do you think the children are for what happened? At what age is a person no longer a child and fully responsible for his or her behaviour?

All children are responsible for what they do no matter what it is. The age that is not a kid any more is 13 and up so they will have to deal with there own behaviour.

3. What do you believe? Do people behave because they know that it is the right thing to do, or do people behave because they are afraid of consequences?

I believe that people do both of them because some people might be scary of the consequences and the other just know that it is not right to do somethings.

4. Whose fault was it that Piggy died? Was it simply the boy(s) who rolled the stone on top of him or was it the whole gang?

In a way it's was the whole gang fault that Piggy died because they inflects the boys that rolled the stone on top of him.

5. Do you feel that people act differently when they are in a group? What is the difference? Why will people do things as a group that they would never do on their own?

I think that people act different in a group of people because they want to be cool and they are scary to act on there own.
