The Lord of the Flies traces the problems of society back to the sinful nature of man. ... In the Lord of the Flies William Golding expresses more pessimistic views than optimistic views, which also support his belief that man is, and always has been, essentially evil by nature. ... The inbred evil in man is apparent when these well-taught schoolboys wind up committing horrible crimes, acts of violence and even murder. ... (Golding 156) Ralph represents the conflict of good and evil that exists in man. ... Golding believed that the natural state of humans is chaos and that man is savage at the very core of his existence. Golding’s primary goal in writing Lord of the Flies was to convey the message that man always reverts back to his savage nature.
