2  In Chapter 1, the boys, show a sense of irresponsibility and are still very unsure of how to behave with no adult presence overseeing them. They decide to stick to the learned behaviors of civilization and order. By making shelter, rules, electing a leader, establishing a system of labor and exploring the island, they attempt to re-create life of society on their deserted island. But even at this early stage, you start to see the danger that the boys’ instinctive instincts pose to their civilization: the boys cruelly taunt Piggy, and Jack displays an aggressive desire to be elected the group’s leader. This foreshadows the viciousness that is to come.

3  IRRESPONSIBLITY:  Want of, or freedom from, responsibility or accountability.  VISCIOUSNESS:  Ferociousness; the trait of extreme cruelty or harshness. In the novel Lord of the Flies by William Golding, the beginning Segments of the story show the boys’ Innocence and pure sense of responsibility. However, as the novel goes on, this sense of irresponsibility And naivetés turns to viciousness out of a mind set of Survival and just making ends meat. The boys turn to hunting, Being harsh to other cast mates and going absolutely nuts.

4  As the novel goes on, the tension between Ralph and Jack becomes serious. William Golding has twisted Jack and Ralph's mutual respect and understanding to mutual disregard for one another's thoughts and actions. As jack becomes more and more of a savage, Ralph holds tighter to his civility. Not only is the story turning to Ralph vs. Jack, but it is also turning to Jack's mob vs. Ralph's mob resulting in a transformation to visciousness  Soon after this, the man vs. man in this novel rolls into hopeful to be rescued vs. savages. Ralph's group of builders becomes more and more segregated from Jack's vicious hunters. The two groups believe in different things and Jack and Ralph's differences start to get bigger and differences are becoming hate.

5  Throughout Lord of the Flies, Golding shows the constant theme of man vs. man. The stress between Jack and Ralph started out as just simple fragments of irritation but gradually becomes vicious. Man vs. man is strong throughout the novel and twists into an important theme.

6  It is completely true, that the destructive forces of irresponsibility and viciousness exist today. Irresponsibility can in a lot of cases, be the root of viciousness in our everyday world. For instance, a teenager who lives their life irresponsibly doing drugs, drinking under age, not being attentive to anyone but themselves and totally disregarding the rules around them can develop a habit of this. Eventually, if not detoured or fixed this “habit” may very well turn into a personality as an adult resulting in a severe form of viciousness such as: selfishness, immaturity, and lack of good judgment.
