In the novel Lord of the Flies, identify three points in the novel where Golding's beliefs/bias/opinions are visible.

Man is inherently evil- with the exception of the twins, Ralph, Piggy, and Simon all the boys digress into savagery. The boys choose to follow Jack and perform disturbing acts. The killing of the sow, for example, is full of rape imagery.

Man is self destructive- The boys basically burn down the entire island to kill Ralph. Had the sailor not come, the boys would have died of thirst (contaminated water) or killed each other.

Man is beyond redemption- The boys kill Simon, Golding's Christ figure.
